And there's something different about a father that a mother can't quite replace. I'm not sure I can quantify it or defend it yet, though there are supposedly studies which do. But there's something to it that I can't shake. Yet I still insist that two men or two women can make excellent parents who can bring up very well-rounded children with all the confidence, strength, conviction, sensitivity, and love they need to maintain strong principles and build society.<br><br>All of that aside, I much love the awkwardness of the diagram of the homo male and homo female together. Beautiful. I laughed.Original Mohomiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12887614143300677214noreply@blogger.com
