I know what I'm about to say does not conform to everyone's standard or norm, but the fact that it's on the news is because we are talking about it.
Whether you personally agree or disagree with the family is not what's important.
So back to the weird woman, who kinda turned into a man(obviously not fully, she still can have kid(s)), and got pregnant while looking like a man(looks disturbing-I agree).
This an example of how the media can deliver and frame news about *** couples. Obviously, she is still a she, physically at least, yet she identifies herself as a he. The role of gender identification is based on learned behavior, not on what you got down there.
We can all judge the probable 15 minutes of media coverage, but we would never get a full grasp of what's going on. Like any of the news, there will always be information that is swayed, spun, or bias- and that is why we have to make an informed, rational decision.
For those afraid of the consequences of children under the parental supervision of same-sex marriages, what are you afraid of?
The fact that these kids will grow up "confused", teased and maybe even harassed? Well it's sad to say that they probably will, like 99 percent of ALL growing kids. But the real question is WHY they would be harassed or confused?
With the growing rates in poverty and abuse among children, who are we to assume that under the guidance of two responsible(varies-Like normal people-yes they make mistakes too) same sex individuals, they would be less loved or cared for. In fact, the majority of kids abused, impoverished, or homeless, chances are, they had the traditional Mom & Dad(sometimes lack of). What about those hundreds of thousands of single parent's that had to provide for their children by themselves. Are we arguing because we believe that ***s cannot care for kids or should not care for kids? What about those kids who do have same sex parents, would we as a nation of laws relieve those parents of their parental duties? NO. In fact, we should place our efforts that not only those kids grow up healthy, but all kids have loving parents. Although unconventional and less traditional, the raising, even adoption of kids by same sex couples would do more good than harm.
I know how hard it is not to act/view without reflecting from our inherited beliefs/traditions, but in this 21st century, under this presidency, we cannot mindlessly wage war with others because of differences. Let us hope, even pray, that all people, children, adults, straight/*** grow up into productive individuals.
So you might not agree with any of my statements, but I just hope a few people can understand that this is not a *** rights issue, or even about a woman, who believes she's a man, looks like one, and had a child(maybe even two), it is about people fighting for human rights.
sidenote: why is word/text "***" being censored". This censorship is only impairing rational discussion.
EDIT - By Gr8KarmaSF - Sorry but your political comments were edited due to a no politics discussion rule here on MFK. The word g - a - y was censored because, unlike this mature post, most immature and sexually insecure people use this word in a deragatory way. If you would like me to edit this further or any differently please feel free to pm me.
