no more then straight couples. If this ideal was correct then straight couples would never have gay children. just for the record my parents were straight as arrows. in fact I would go as far as to bet 95% of the LGBT people on here had straight parents.

Not necessarily we are all different. Just because the couple are gay, it doesn't mean that they are overly sensitive or flamboyant themselves, so there is no reason why this might be passed on to a young male. There a lots of arguments about nature or nurture in regards to how children grow up, but nothing conclusive as to how we obtain our personality traits.

Not at all, Studies have shown that homosexual couples do the best that they can to raise their children with an open mind. For example a lesbian couple will make sure that their children have a male remodel in their life thus showing them that even though they are gay the children have the option to be heterosexual. Now these children may be some of the most kind and open minded people out there because they understand that it does not matter if you are gay all that matters is what is found in your heart.

Your stereotype of gay men is incorrect. Most gay men you dont even realize are gay. You work with them, probably have them in your family. So the answer is no, a young male raised by a gay couple will not be over sensitive or flamboyant.

I've known a lot of children raised by gay parents, and they're no different from any other children. It doesn't make them gay, and it doesn't make them overly sensitive. It's an individual thing, I think. :)

NO.
My son is simply a natural performer. he's not overly flamboyent or "showy" at all. As far as "sensitive" that's purely a matter of persepective. If by "sensitive" you mean "compassionate" and "forgiving" than YES, my son is and I'm damned proud of instilling that VALUE of others in him!
If by "sensitive" you mean "weak" or somehow lacking backbone...CERTAINLY NOT!
Another FYI: He's straight, so stop trying to get a date.

My son was raised by me (an out gay man) and he is now married, has 3 kids and is a successful Doctor. He is neither sensitive are flamboyant, but he can camp it up pretty good when he wants.

I knew a guy who was raised by two gay men. He grew up normal, but very anti-gay.
