I was curious because a few years back (like 99; yeah I know I'm getting old) I heard an argument for homosexuals being able to adopt. The argument stated that most gay men and women who have/raise children wind up with straight children. So that got me thinking about all the gay people I have known. The kids all had straight parents and the parents all had straight kids. So I wondered if anyone knew gay people with gay children or vise versa

Wow.. (surprised look) After thinking about it, no.
All those I know have straight parents.
Peace

Huh. That's a good question. I have never thought about it before. I have known a good handful of homosexuals in my life, and honestly, I don't know that much about most of their parents. That said, I can honestly say that the few I DO know about did NOT have a homosexual parent... but without exception, they had homosexual relatives SOMEWHERE. I guess it makes sense. Homosexuality is genetic, so it likely came from somewhere, but a homosexual would not likely have sex with someone of the opposite sex and have a baby. It is definitely possible, but would not likely be the norm.

I used to know a gay guy raising a daughter . I assume she turned out straight . I never heard one way or the other . Nobody on the scene cared, they just wanted her to be happy .

If it does happen, it's probably more of a choice situation, rather than being born that way.

Actually, I don't.
I do have a straight friend with a gay father, however.

Lots of them.
I also know, percentage-wise, a lot more LGBT people who have straight parents.
Why do you want to know?
