I'm pretty much neutral to the whole gay parents thing, although I can see it makes sense to avoid it. It's got to be weird as **** for the kid in social situations, like if friends come over or something. A friend of mine, his mom divorced his dad and ended up with another woman. And I never thought much of it, but if I had met him when I was like 6 and had experienced the same thing back then, I think I might have been weirded out by it and been overly judgmental.

Maybe it would have weirded you out, but only because it wasn't the norm. The only way to not find it weird is to see it happen more often. Think of all the kids who could find homes if gay couples were allowed to adopt in addition to heterosexual couples? Certainly better than no home at all.
