re: #388 Obdicut

You can’t really separate that from gay parenting, though. That’s innately twinned. You can’t be sure if the factor is the missing male/female from the equation, or the presence of societal onus on a gay couple/divorced woman/single mom.

Are you reading the links of the studies that go contrary to what you believe?

Yep. Scrupulously. They remind me of studies showing there is no global warming. They’re sparse, narrow, and small.

You can be sure that the factor is the missing gender when that variable is significant throughout myriad different situations. If you’re poor and missing a gender, you’re likely to fare worse than other poor kids with both genders. If you’re rich and missing a gender, you’re likely to fare worse than other rich kids missing a gender.

Don’t tell me that kids whose mom or dad isn’t present in the home fare worse because of “society”. Occam’s razor is not for shaving…
