Better to end up with someone who wants you and will try to care for you and take of you, than fucking foster care or unfit birth parents. I don't see why not honesty, penguins do it all the time.

How are we different from animals? We are just a bit smarter and have religion. That is all.

"A bit smarter" is an understatement.

Spent enough time on here and out in the world to know it's really not, most people are dumb as fuck. It's only an understatement for a small percent of humans.

Been on here longer, but I do slightly agree. We dumb as shit. Humans may be technologically advanced now, but animals have to survive the wilderness, and I think that's more difficult than working 9-5 at a convenience store. Personally, I think humanity is gonna wipe itself out cause of technology and warfare. Chimps are similar as they have territorial interactions and murder each other like gang members do during having an issue with rivals. Sorry, drunk ranting again. I do that a lot.

Here is not a good representation of the planet. Many people are intelligent and despite them being stupid doesn't discount for many things. Complex emotions are a massive step.

Ehhh, there was a case of a dolphin who got adopted by a pod of whales that the dolphin basically adapted to speak their language by staying with them that long. It's kinda like learning a new language. Accent and all. And we're really close to actually being able to understand what whales are saying due to new technology. They're smarter than you think.

True, humans are just technically apes, just more evolved.

Not even more evolved. We've evolved differently. A chimp is more evolved than me for lifting weights and climbing

For sure. Zookeepers say they're like toddlers that can whoop your ass.

Why can't gay couples take care of kids? Ever heard of baby formula? Just cause you don't have tits doesn't mean you can't feed your kid. Just cause your gay doesn't mean you don't know how to take care of a child. I'm not gay in any sense, but I think you're just homophobic.

As long as they are seen fit for parenthood i dont see why not! Gay parents are just as loving and caring as straight parents. Even though we are all human and we are all different, those differences dont fully define anyone as a person! Plus it would definitely be better and preferable than a child being born into a shitty house or being abused by the foster care system. (P.S. gay parents can also be as unloving as straight parents and just as unfit for parenthood but just like straight couples, it does not define every experience!) Love y'all!

Yea?? It's such an amazing opportunity for couples to be able to adopt children especially when they can't make any!! There's nothing wrong with having two dads or moms and someone's sexual orientation/same sex partner should never stop them from their dream of parenthood!!

I'm pretty sure they can. Like why would a girl who likes smooching girls instead of boys (that's it) not be a good foster parent I dare someone to give me 5 reasons
