Homosexual Parenting Harms Children

The lead letters at yesterday's Los Angeles Times were in response to the coward David Blankenhorn's recent op-ed, "What matters now about marriage."

I'm surprised this one got past the editors:

I would say to Blankenhorn that what matters about marriage is the children. He fails to mention where the children fit into a gay marriage that has either two men or two women living together.

How does a child keep his or her head on straight when there is either no father or no mother? How does a female child living with two women learn the love and protection that only a man can provide? How does a male child living with two men learn the love and softness that only a woman can contribute?

How does the child, living in a lopsided environment, understand that a woman has her role in the marriage and that the man has his role in the marriage? It cannot be duplicated by two men or two women being married partners.

After all is said and done, this is the core argument that leftists can never rebut. All they can say is that it doesn't matter, that people have a so-called "human" right to marry whomever they want. Screw the children. It's all about the homosexual narcissists themselves.

And all of this activism won't end with same-sex marriage, because progressives are never satisfied with the status quo. The Kaitlyn Hunt saga demonstrates that reason and decency won't stand in the way of 100 percent license for homosexuals to do whatever they please.
