The article is blithly interspersed with all manner of offensive junk.
for example:
"The disproportionate number of boys born to lesbian mothers is thus, at least in part, an ironic slap in the face from an unforgiving biological fact."
of course no one is mentioning that the reason that nature makes more males than females is that we die off faster in all age groups from adolescence on. Though the article is making the assumption that lesbians only want girl children, which then begs the question of what or why the author things this is so.
of course the article points out that these boys will be utopian men who "dance, sing, decorate, play music, sew, and do theater and imaginative dress-up as well as play football and baseball, surf, ski, and shoot hoops"
The sad part of all this is not the issue in how the boys are raised or what their interests in, but what happens when they seek mates of their own. i dont know about you guys, but i dont see the men who do "imaginative dress-up" doing too well in the dating arena. generally those horrible brutes do better... i am not saying its right, but ladies pick what they like, and men like this are not high on their list of selections...
The truth is that if the majority of attractive women went after men like this rather than the men that get their blood running hot then we would have tons of men like this. raising your children as part of a social experiment as to how you think the world should be, over how it is, doesnt help either."
