>>3667086i’m torn in two on this issue. on the one hand as a gay and pretty much a failure of a person due to a handful of factors, it’s something i sort of wish i had as a child: the thought of having two dads who would have understood me and helped me grow up is a really appealing fantasy.
On the other side of the coin, it definitely seems reported a lot that gay male couples abuse male adoptees. This is probably scaremongering from the usual suspects, but I don’t doubt that it happens. I probably wouldn’t trust most of the posters itt to be my dads.
Then the issue of abuse is a complicated one as well. Prudes get freaked out by stuff like that one Ghibli movie where the dad takes a naked bath with his daughters, even though nothing even remotely sexual is depicted. I can’t bring myself to say more on that, because it’s almost politically dangerous to do so in the hellhole of modernity.
So being the child of loving and gentle gay parents is something I simultaneously fantasize about and am afraid of, for myself and others. I also know I’m not nearly a quality enough person to be a good parent, I can barely keep a plant alive.
Enough thoughts for you?
