Umm, a nice political point, but not true. There are plenty of gay kids from gay or lesbian parents, although no one likes to talk about it because the political argument is that "gay parents are no more likely to have gay kids that straight parents are." This argument assumes, of course, that is something wrong with being gay but it isn't quite so wrong if you don't transfer it to your children, an assumption that doesn't work for me at all.

All of them came from STRAIGHT parents!
