My completely stupidly profound question is: WHY THE HELL DO THEY THINK THAT WE AS LGBT AND ANDROGYNES AND INTERSEXES, THAT WE ARE ALL ANTI-FAMILY? i have two kids and a wife and at least one more child (if not 2) on the way. i wouldn't trade any of them for the world!!!!!!!!!!!!

Because "family' plays well, Mickie. The fact that you have a family, I know quite well two gay males who adopted a special needs child and they are a family as well, my partner, my son and myself are a lesbian family, and since neither she nor I are accepted by our birth-families we have an 'extended family' of close friends and neighbors we see and socialize with regularly. IOW, there are many families that Massresistance and their ilk conveniently ignore when they write about family.
They seem to believe that a 'family' is a middle-class, religious heterosexual white male and his white, religious, middle-class and heterosexual wife who are raising 2 white, middle-class, religious, heterosexual children and live pretty much isolated from everyone else in a suburb somewhere or another.
And yes, they got out-maneuvered quite well when it came to the agenda and the order of speakers. Too late to get their diatribe on the 11 o'clock news!! hahahahaha
