1st repercussion of gay marriage

[zico20]

Here is the start of the new gay world we will live in. Political correctness is going way further than anyone can imagine. For all the fathers on this board, how does it feel to no longer be a father. I realize this is only one state , but it will spread like the plague. Surprised Tennessee started this.

Gays are cheering the start of wiping out the traditional family.

Sorry that you regard gay people as inferior.
That's your problem, though.

The rest of the world, or much of it at least, sees things differently now.
Less bigotry and more tolerance. That's as it should be.
People should learn to accept others for who they are.

The family unit will do just fine with gay couples in the neighborhood.
You can still sleep soundly at night. No worries.

I do have one question for you, though.
Are you a person likely to complain about over-population on this earth?

[Tall One]

Anyone ever not surprised it's Tennessee?


SEC humor, carry on.

I never said that gay people are inferior. However, it certainly seems like you find the mother/father terminology an offensive term.

Why would I complain about over-population of the Earth?

I suspect that you don't get out much these days...

Oh, and I'm a father of two, by the way.
It won't really bother me filling out a form in the future,
and having to refer to myself as parent 1 or 2.

This isn't just a matter for homosexual parents.
Straight couples have been adopting children since forever.
Referring to them as the child's mother or father isn't technically correct.
Political correctness takes a backseat to categorical accuracy, perhaps?

Much ado about nothing. His ruling will be overturned on appeal. Some time judge got his name on FOX News. Hope he enjoys his 15 minutes.

The very first line of your link, disputes your post.
The Tennessee Administrative Office of the Courts reversed a controversial decision to replace the terms "mother" and "father" with "parent 1" and "parent 2."
Perhaps someone did make the poor decision to replace the terms mother and father, but someone with more sense overruled them.

Gay people do not want to wipe out the family, they want to be allowed to raise a family of their own. They do not want to be called parent one and parent two. They want to be called Mommy and Daddy. In these cases there are two mommies or two daddies. I am sure you find that terribly perverted, but it is not.

I know two gay men (Now married) who adopted three boys from Central America. The oldest is now sixteen or seventeen and shows no signs of catching "Gayness" from his fathers. The boys address both men as "Dad" or "Daddy". When talking about their fathers to someone else they call them Dad J or Dad C.

These men are as good parents as any hetero couple, maybe better. They are not immoral, the are church goers, active in their community and I am proud to have them as friends.

In case you don't know, I am hetero but tolerant.

Not terribly, "just"...

There is no other living species on earth that has two mommies or two daddies...It is just terribly unnatural...

It appears there was an original story in which Tennessee said they were going to use the terms Parent 1 and Parent 2 in place of Mother and Father. Then there was an update in which Tennessee realized this was a really dumb idea.
It may be that Zico20 posted before the update.

Let's remember that this was an idea hatched in the Tennessee AOC all on their own. There is no gay movement to be known as parent 1 and parent 2.

There may be a few exceptions, but I think in most cases in a household with two male partners, both want to be looked upon as the father. Two women would both want to be seen as the mother. Contrary to popular belief, gay people do not want to be the other sex. That is another category entirely.

"Isn't technically correct"? But it has been legally correct forever and has served societies just fine. The non-biological parents of adopted children have always been regarded as being their parents legally. What is wrong with that?

It would serve you well to do some research before you make a statement.

I have to agree with you on this-and disagree with H4C. Adoptive parents are parents, both De Jure and De Facto.

And it does not matter if they are gay, straight or bi.

I get sick and tired of the LGBT or whatever you call it being celebrated and crammed down everyone's throat. Fine and dandy
it is a biological aberration but why does it have to get so much
attention from the media?

I have always had MSN as my home page (please someone give me an alternative to look at)

Daily, close to the top of the page is a link to either a Caitlyn Jenner story or pictures of the he-she.

Another one is Britney Griner's marriage troubles or her wife expecting twins.
(If Tim Duncan's wife was expecting twins no one would know about it)

On modern television there seems to be way more gays than are in the general population. One example gays make up like 3% of the population
and even way less than that are the obvious types (flaming guys and women who dress like men) yet on Master Chef they have at least one or
more obvious homosexuals out of 20 contestants.

TV talk show hosts on broadcast TV, we have Ellen, Rosie, Steve and Chris (he just died) so keeping with the law of averages in the general population
can you name me 128 straight TV talk show hosts?

This country is so backward and caters to minority groups over and above
the majority masses. What happened to "In Rome do as the Romans do"?
Anywhere but the USA they would tell you cross out what doesn't apply on
a form. If it says mother and father if the kid has two dads cross out mother and write father. Parent 1 and 2, give me a break. That will probably
cause fights, each parent is equally as important so who should
be parent 1?
