I'm curious, If a same-love couple adopts a child, what does the child call them?
Calling them both "dad" or "mom" sounds like it would be confusing...
Depends on the family.
I would imagine the most common is for them to call both of them "mum" or "dad", or refer to them by name.
It's no more confusing than children who have divorced parents and have a step-parent.
You wouldn't say "Hey, Step-Dad". You'd just say "Hey, Dad" or call them by their own name.
i wasn't mad that he was attracted to me, i was mad because he kept touching me a little too friendly even though he knew i was straight
The problem here isn't that the person is gay (not saying that's what you think, but some do), but that they have no concept of how to treat people with respect.
If a straight man is interested in a girl, then you don't go about flirting with them by touching them.
This person obviously just has no idea how is the right way to go about showing affection for someone.
I personally have no qualms against homoloveual people.
If two people of the same love are attracted to each other and care to be with each other then I have no problem with that. It doesn't bother me if there are same-love couples marrying either.
The criteria for marriage shouldn't be the love of the partners involved, but rather that they love each other and will care for each other.
A lot of people I know (regardless of religion) will say that gay people shouldn't be "married" because marriage is defined as "between a man and a woman" by the Bible.
They make it out as if gay couples can't be religious themselves.
Which makes no sense to me. Just because you happen to be gay shouldn't mean you can't believe in God, nor the rest of christianity. You might say that you can't be Christian if you don't follow/agree with all of the bible, but almost everyone cuts out pieces of the Bible that they don't agree with. Even big sects of Christianity, like Catholicism or the Anglican Church don't follow every piece of the bible literally, and they also disagree on interpretation of many things.
And then alongside that I hear of straight atheist couples who will go to get married (not necesarrily in a church), yet they will still consider themselves married in a marriage, rather than in a "Civil Partnership".
To me it sounds like a lot of double-standards.
I don't care if there are gay people out there. I don't care if they think I'm attractive or would like to have a relationship with me. I find girls attractive and want a relationship with them, although they might not reciprocate the feelings. No reason why I should feel uncomfortable about gay people having feelings towards me. I likely wouldn't even notice if a gay person did.
