Callwaiting - In reading your responses here, I believe you are not just rhetorically repeating lines in a pet argument and so I want to respond. My experience is the same as many others here, which is that gay couples and gay parents remain and will remain a statistical minority (by far). There are places in the country where those families are more common because, like most families, gay families choose when they are able to live where they are welcome, safe and where the culture includes them and their children. So it can seem in certain parts of the country that, everywhere you look, you see gay families which means you see "fewer" straight families. But it just isn't the overall statistical truth. Additionally, gay parents mostly raise straight children because straight (heterosexual) is the statistical norm and so "gay parents" are, in most families, a one generation phenomenon and then that family goes back to the statistically normal pattern: straights parents, straight kids.
