Actually, I did. I mentioned childbirth -- which men still cannot perform (cursed biology), and which is a crucial ten month time for women preparing to be mothers.
childbirth is not parenting. that's pretty basic, no?
i suppose adoptive parents or women with sperm donors don't spend that time preparing? how many families are you going to bash simply because they look different in order to make whatever point you're continuing to grasp at?
what does this have to do with marriage?
Additionally, the period of adolescence when a child begins to develop sexually is a time when the vast majority of girls want and need a mother, and the vast majority of boys want and need a father.
this is sloppy psychology if i've ever heard it -- but i suppose it goes along with your willingness to bash single parents in order to make points that gays and single parents are somehow flawed, inadequate parents, and therefore they shouldn't get married.
many boys and many girls are damaged and harmed by their mothers and their fathers, and many boys and many girls also turn to other family members at various points in their lives.
many fathers are able to talk to their daughters about puberty and sexuality, and mothers to their sons. and many parents never have direct talks with their kids.
i know you seem to think you know the best way for everyone to live and the best way for children to be raised and the best way for a family to look, but why don't you talk to the gay people you claim to know and ask them how they're going to handle puberty and other difficult issues. it could be, Nathan, that they have an answer that might be just as good as anything a heterosexual could come up with.
So I did answer your question. You just don't like the answer. Sorry.
are you under the assumption that you've made any sort of credible assertion or point or argument?
try again, Nathan. tell me how birthing a child is being a parent, and again, tell me what is exclusive to gender when it comes to actual parenting.
