It's the same argument against whether hetrosexual parents would be good or not, their sexuality doesn't come into it, whether they're a good person, loving and caring, or an total ******* who beats their children with a cane.
So far I've heard no actual evidence whether same sex couples would or would not have a detrimental effect on the development of a child in their care.
I was subjected to cruelty by my father, his favourite for hitting me was an electric flex looped up, but worse was listing to the endless 'rows' & the way he treated my mother.

this isn't about me, but 'if' I could have avoided all that by being in a loving same sex marriage where the partners were supportive & enthusiastic, not critical and sarcastic, I don't think I would complain.....

- everyone is different, this is not a subject amenable to consensus, thank goodness it can be discussed sensibly, though
