UCLA study finds teens with two mothers do better in school and are happier - Polidicks

[QUOTE=DainBramageStudios;38422734] yeah somehow that doesn't fill me with optimism[/QUOTE] probably is filled with optimism itself though

[QUOTE=thisispain;38427832]please name a "man-tip" that only manly blokes like us know about[/QUOTE] First hand things like facial shaving and crap like this, stuff a father usually tells his son how to do etc. I'm interested in how a mother could provide that, as I said I'm not against it I'm genuinely interested in how it could be taught without first hand experience/does and donts. Its not specifically related to just that, but things that only a man would have via first hand unless the lesbian for some reason does the same shit. I'm pro-gay marriage and the right to adopt a child which is why I'm interested in [I]how.[/I]

uh facial shaving isn't something your dad has to tell you, i didn't have a dad yet i miraculously put 2 and 2 together to figure out how to shave plus women shave too i imagine the experience doesn't differ that much if that's the most obvious example of a man-tip you have i'd consider reanalysing your weird views chernarus

But if you wish, I'll re-analyse my views on two mothers. That is kind of why I said not specific but sure, okay whatever.

Maybe I misunderstood the article, but I'm pretty sure it's trying to show that same-sex couples can raise kids as happy and as supported and as well as straight couples can. Not trying to imply that it is better to be of a same-sex family.

[QUOTE=DainBramageStudios;38426668]what does equal causation then?[/QUOTE] oh don't be this way. In this case there are reasons why one would cause the other but in general you can't say that correlation means causation. Example: I will investigate 200 fires in Los Angeles over a six month period with the fire department. I find that the more firemen there can be found responding to a fire, the larger the fire is. There is a correlation. Can I conclude that more firemen causes a fire to be bigger? No. [editline]12th November 2012[/editline] [QUOTE=thisispain;38427832]please name a "man-tip" that only manly blokes like us know about[/QUOTE] and at the same time you are also pretending Yes, in today's society, a father and a mother tend to have different roles in the raising of a child. I do not believe that the absence of this father role justifies the exclusion from adoption that gays face in many states, though.

[QUOTE=cecilbdemodded;38423345]I think it's a no-brainer that kids with TWO parents will do better overall. Two parents is generally a sign that all is well with the family. [/QUOTE] In my case it wouldn't

[QUOTE=laserguided;38427742]I'm saying that there would be a lack of gender-specific things that really a women would not know about.[/QUOTE] So your IQ is the same as your age. Women know what cocks are. There isn't some magical aspect of not having one that prevents a mom from telling a kid to clean it or whatever equally asinine bullshit you think you need a dad to either deduce or be told.

[QUOTE=Ownederd;38428369]even though JINX is being sarcastic, are you seriously implying that discrimination towards this isn't common in the western world? lol[/QUOTE] Discrimination is very common however it is becoming progressively more acted against, by a large scale. Compared to the 1950's we're [I]way [/I]ahead. We're still at an unacceptable level however. [editline]12th November 2012[/editline] Give it 5-15 years.

[QUOTE=Rocâ„¢;38422541]Does the study mention anything about big closets that can fit a lot of people in?[/QUOTE] Yes.
