What about adopting kids. Are you okay with that?
What about the Catholic church, which REFUSES to let gay couples apply for adoption. Are you okay with Massachusetts' decision that the Catholic Church can no longer find homes for these kids?

IMO, the nation needs to decide whether it is or is NOT best for children to have both a father and a mother at home. These days, the answer is unclear.
I view it as pretty straight-forward, though. The people I know who were raised overwhelmingly by one gender are almost uniformly weak individuals. They lack the balance that usually comes with constant exposure from a young age to adults of both genders.
