"First of all , we are supposed to be introducing ourselves , not starting up a topic . But let me kill two birds with one stone here . Hi everyone , I 'm new here . And I love to debate . I got kicked out of one debate , because I won the debate on linguistics , and the girl got mad , because she lost , and banned me from the froum . Hopefully no one here is as immature as that . But anyway , thats my story , I 'm glad to be here . And I 'm ready to debate . And here is my first victim . I 'm against gay marriages . Why ? ! Because in order to mantain a healthy environment for children . ( which they always seem to want to adopt ) there has to be a healthy relationship . Now a child grows up , and sees two men/women dating eachother . That can confuse the child as to whether they should also be gay . It is not only harmful to the family environment , but also to society . And do n't hand me that , `` My uncle is gay. `` Stuff . I had ( he passed away ) a gay uncle , have three gay cousins , and a gay aunt . Not my whole family is not gay , but it seems like I have quite a few in my family . Now I do n't support what they do . Even though I love them because they are my family , I would not support them if they were to marry ."
"And what evidence do you have that having two gay parents would confuse a child about weahter they should be gay ? Did you know that the same percentage of children that were brought up by gay couples turn out to be gay as children who are brought up by straight couples ? I would say that destroys your conception that the kid would be confused . I know a number of people who were brought up by commited gay couples ( admittedly not many ) , and not one of the ones I know turned out to be gay ."
