Unfortunately, it is other peoples buisness. Due to overpopulation, the world is running low on non-renewable resources. Like water, gas, oil. And the question must be raised… does earth have a carrying capacity? When do we reach it? Are we close? So, even if a family can afford their children, they’re adding to overpopulation. Two children should be the amount of any given family; replace only yourself and your spouse. If you want more children, there are millions of children who need homes out there.

The reason is that we’re all a result of our history and nationality. African Americans in Africa didn’t pay much attention to a tune in music; they were very involved in rhythm. The British, however, were not so interested in rhythm as they were in a tune. So even though it’s hundreds of years later, these ideals have been passed down through family music, family dancing, what is taught to you by your culture from birth.

China is probably the best place to adopt from, especially if you’re looking for a girl. They only require one trip to China, (many require two), and most of the time, there is really nothing at all wrong with the child other than the fact that they were girls. It’s true that white babies are very difficult to find in the US, but there is no overestimating the amount of children that need to be adopted. Just go online and look for children waiting for homes. You will be amazed by the sheer number of children.

And, unfortunately, some children are raised with homophobic parents who will become the one reason that homosexual parents might not get children. These are the kids who will harass the children of gay parents, call them names, tease them, and all because they have been badly influenced. As I’m sure you’ve heard, sex is no more important to gays than to straights. I can’t go into a full blown out lecture, but if you’re interested, e-mail me. To make it short and sweet, they are often loving couples who probably started out as friends just like any other couples, and who, in the privacy of their homes engage in sex as PART of their relationship, just like most couples. To assume that because they have sex they can’t love a child normally is…..a nonsensical lie. The thing that really ticks me off, though, is to say that gay people can’t adopt. Why? Are you saying that it is better for children to have no parents and no security than to have two loving parents? Are you saying that we should cut out a huge amount of children who COULD be adopted, but woulden’t because some people believe that their would-be parents like sex more than straight people? That boogles my mind. Please, please step outside your box and think about this objectively.

I never felt guilty or ashamed of having money; it’s not a crime. My family doesn’t hoard it; we give to people on the streets, we send money to relief organizations, we do what we can for friends who have less. I never thought about being poor; I thought often about taking in people who were and giving them everything I had been given. And I still do. I know how lucky I was and am, which is perhaps why I’m so interested in adoption and foster care. I’m aware there are people out there with less than I. I want to help them, I know I have the means to do it. I never rebelled against my parents; my one rebellion was dropping out of piano lessons when I was 13. I don’t know that being rich pressures you to be a model kid, but being in a rich family usually means that you have expectations to do well in school, go to college, complete college, not get sidetracked by boyfriends or kids, but I don’t think that was unnessessary pressure.

The church gains power by telling people how to live their lives. In the past, you coulden’t live together without being married, you coulden’t have children out of wedlock, you coulden’t do thousands of things that are considered okay now. This isn’t because these things have become over time more ‘right’, it’s because they’ve become more socially necessary. The majority of people following these religions are not gay. Many do eat meat, they do have sex before marriage. But if enough people want the church’s ideals to change, they have to, or else they will loose their congregations. So they concentrate on the things that minorities do or are, like being gay.

It’s a cultural thing, something that shoulden’t be forced on anyone but probably should be respected if all parties are okay with it. As to reasons why, America is so expensive, having 5 adults living in one house allows for more resources. In addition to that, statistics show that the more parents a child has, the better it turns out. So, this family unit is much better for children than the one parent families that this country does allow.

If my hero were my best friend, I could tell a co-worker that, and it woulden’t mean a thing. If I quoted her, it woulden’t mean much. If I said Angelina Jolie was my hero, people respond to that. They can agree or disagree; it can turn into a whole conversation. In addition to that, these are beautiful, successful woman who seem to be able to deal with the pressure of woman all over the world looking up to them. Let’s face it, that’s what we all want to be. Rich, beautiful, self-made, capable and strong.

First off, it’s strange to me that obviously gay men are so strange in society as opposed to tomboy girls. When woman started fighting to wear pants, or get jobs, or play baseball….anything of these things, people coulden’t understand why these woman wanted to act like men. Interestingly enough, America is one of the most closed minded places about sex and gender. In many other places, just because your genetically female doesn’t mean you’re female. It means that your sex is female and your gender is male. If you believe in spirits, think about a female spirit being put into a male body, seeing beautiful celebrities, wanting, just like other woman to look like them. Make-up, pretty clothes….lets face it, woman are prettier than men. If you’re a woman, even if you’re genetically a male, you want what every woman wants.
