As for me, like your professors and friends, I'm childless, and it's not at all sad. It may not be sad for you but it certainly is sad for them. I know that for a fact. It's only sad if they direly want kids and are without. If they don't have any and don't want any, or don't have any and thoughts of children are just a passing fancy, it's no tragedy.

... so if they want their OWN kids .. they would have to mate with a female... 
Most of my gay professors and friends are childless.. .. kinda sad since kids are so much fun but a lot of work. I don't want to debate semantics, but I think a lot of people who have adopted would frown upon the emphasis on OWN. And there are other ways to conceive besides mating in the traditional sense...although that's not the end of the world either. As for me, like your professors and friends, I'm childless, and it's not at all sad. 45 Gay and childless and I don't see how my mother did it as a single parent. Tip of the hat everyday to everyone who raises children. I've never wanted children and in the fifth grade stated that I never wanted children and that hasn't changed. I don't want you to think like me. I just want you to think. |

Uh, I know lots of straight women who don't feel the need or instinct to have children and plenty of gay men who do want and desire children. There is not a difference because someone is gay or straight. It has to do with how the individual feels about it Under certain circumstances, urgent circumstances, desperate circumstances, profanity provides a relief denied even to prayer. | |
