"But once gay parenting is open to the same elements of society that the
heterosexual population reflect, including poor, uneducated, from
broken homes, then it is reasonable to assume many of the same societal
ailments which plague the "breeders" in marriage will also plague the
"gays"."
A
lot of breeders become that way because of laziness--remember, all it
takes for a hetero to become one is to not use birth control. Simple
biology suggests that that would be impossible for a gay couple--to
have lots of children requires the payment of money for medical or
adoption procedures to circumvent biology. Random child production
cannot happen with a gay couple.
That's not to say a gay couple
can't be disfunctional, or that a child of a disfunctional gay marriage
would not hate gays as a result. But it's not inevitable, either, and
the exact same process can happen with a straight couple. And if the
child knows of other, happier, gay families, that blame is less likely
to happen for the same reasons people seldom blame their parents'
straightness.
