Person 1:
Gays shouldn't raise children! It takes a mother and a father to raise a child!
Person 2:
No, it really doesn't...
Person 3:
Yes it does. Children need male and female influences in their formative years.
Person 2:
Debatable, but more fair. Still, that doesn't necessarily mean they need a mother AND a father, nor that having two of either is bad.
Person 1:
Yes it does!
Person 2:
Your dad was always at work, right? Traveled around a lot, and you almost never saw him, right?
Person 1:
Yeah, and?
Person 2:
Well, you more or less grew up without a dad, right? But you had uncles, and grandfathers, and cousins that helped to fulfill a 'male influence in your formative years', right?
Person 1:
Well, yeah....
Person 2:
And your mother ran off when you were a kid, and you were raised by your grandmother and aunts primarily, weren't you?
Person 3:
Yeah, but I don't see what that has to do with anything.
Person 2:
You were raised by multiple mother figures primarily, and you had father figures from your extended family. You're both relatively well functioning people, right?
