I would say I don't see anything wrong with it, why would it be bad for a child to be raised thinking it is ok if you grow up and have those feelings, love is love, and that is better than hate. I have known women that are gay that already had young children, if the government doesnt' have the right go to their house and remove the children why should they have the right to keep them from adopting them? It's not like being gay is illegal, so any child is free to learn that it is ok if they are gay, whether their parents are or not. It isn't learned, either you are or you aren't.

Of course it should be allowed, just as gay marriage should be. Homosexual couples (or singles), have no less love to give a child than heterosexual couples (or singles), do. Being gay isn't a perversion, and the only thing that's going to 'rub off' on an adopted child, would be an open mind...hardly a bad thing. As you said, October - love is love. And whoever was on the waiting list for adoption first, should get preference - gay or straight, makes no difference which.

For legal reasons I accept it but b/c of moral reasons I'm against it. Haven't really made up my mind..
