Yes. Gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people can have families. Same-sex couples do form committed and loving relationships. In the United States many same-sex couples choose to celebrate their love with commitment ceremonies or civil unions, although these couples are not offered the rights and benefits of marriage. In Vermont, same-sex couples can have a state civil union that offers some of the benefits of marriage to resident couples, and the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Council has ruled that under Massachusetts law the state cannot discriminate against same sex couples in the distribution of marriage licenses. In the State of California, state law provides many (but not all) of the benefits of marriage to registered domestic partners irrespective of whether they are composed of opposite or same sex couples. More and more GLBT couples are also raising children together, although state laws on adoption and foster parenting vary. And of course, many GLBT people have the support of the loving families they were born into, or the families that they have created with their other friends and loved ones.

So long as they meet their states requirements then yes they can.

Let me clairify that.... if they are adopting then the above statement is true.

If they are planning on having a biological child all they need is the other half of the equation and a person willing to give up their paternal rights so that they can not take the child away.

If i could still have children I would have one for a gay m/m couple or f/f couple. If I know they would be good parents.

Of course gay people have families. Some of us come over here from time to time because we are the parents of gay young people.

And we really don’t care for the ignorant, homophobic bullies.

gay, g0y, lesbian, bisexual and transgendered couples can adopt, they can have their own biological children either from artificial insemination or by the natural method of intercourse. I have heard of sisters of gay men being artificially inseminated with the sperm of her brothers partner so that they could have a blood bond to their child together. (very loving sister if you ask me)
