I voted for the Seahawks, mostly out of obligation, because they're the closest thing I've got to a local team

On Segment 3, here's something you should think about when it comes to same sex marriage and couples adopting:
How can 2 men (and i dont care how feminine they are) show what a good wife and mother is? How can 2 women (and i dont care if they are as masculine as Rosie O'Donnell) show what a good husband and father is?

On Segment 3, here's something you should think about when it comes to same sex marriage and couples adopting: How can 2 men (and i dont care how feminine they are) show what a good wife and mother is? How can 2 women (and i dont care if they are as masculine as Rosie O'Donnell) show what a good husband and father is? Let's put it this way. There are going to be same-sex parents, whether you find it morally reprehensible or "icky" or what not. You can't do anything about that. I don't think we ought to be using the law, the IRS, etc, to essentially say these families are second-class,'or somehow inferior. Laws that cause real, measurable monetary, and emotional distress on those in the families, including the children of them. That's what this is about, not using the strong arm of the government to shame or castigate things you find icky It's the same way we don't do that to single parents - realistically a child of a single parent will have limited contact with their other parent, and the burden of raising will be on the one parent. They won't have that second parent either. The point is, two males or two females are perfectly capable of providing the nurturing, loving environment a child needs growing up My opinion won't be popular here, and I respect other people who hold different opinions on this topic, but I feel very strongly about this subject, and will respectfully and passionately debate anybody who wishes to do so.
