Argument against gay adoption

[The Comrade]

doesn't it bother you that the gay parents dress their children in leather though?

LOL Prof our experiences--first-hand experiences--don't matter. Nor do studies done on this actual subject.

What matters are op-ed pieces in The Blaze.

i never supported the OP's argument. i was explaining why it's wrong to discount people's opinion simply because they don't know any of those who are in that very small minority known as gay couples who have children. it's like saying if you don't know a syrian you can't comment on ISIS. it's moronic, and it's a fallacy called the fallacy of anecdotal evidence. then i pointed out how gay people themselves could also say the exact opposite of whatever your gay buddies say, invalidating the stupid claim that anecdotes matter anyway, and that it will invariably give the same results

i think that if you could figure out the incomes of the parents, and then find comparable straight couples, you would find a better analysis as to which is better, as adoptive parents are likely quite well off

Sigh. Here we go.

The OP did. When I told the OP he, and that article, were full of shit, you attacked ME for allegedly using "anecdotal" evidence.

Decades of being around gays and gay parents is a little more than "anecdotal" there, chief. I've been around gays and lesbians most of my life, being one of them elite big-city liberals and all. So yeah, I can smell bullshit, and this is bullshit.

You came to his defense. But now you don't want to be associated with the OP link. Talk about having it both ways.

My anecdotal stories make up my memories. My memories make up who I am. Therefore, my anecdotes are infinitely more important to me than any study.
