If gay parenting affected the sexuality of their children, then there would be no gay people, for the parents who raised them are straight. Sexuality is an innate thing decided in the womb as a child's brain is being developed. It's not a disease or a defect; it's just a difference, and it cannot be changed, because it is decided before birth. The American Medical association and the American Psychological association concluded in 1971 that sexuality is something you're born with, and they also said homosexuality is not a disorder of any kind. So no; gay parenting does nothing to affect the sexuality of the children they raise.

Well I believe that being gay is something you are born with, yes, and bringing up the point of straight parents does make me question, but if the way your parents were had no effect on you what so ever then we wouldn't even know how to talk. I mean you learn things from your parents, so wouldn't you first learn about relationships with your parents? I mean really it would make sense if parenting had at least some effect on a child's sexuality. I believe, like I said, that people are born gay, but I also believe that some people choose it. If a parents beliefs and parenting is imprinted upon a child why not sexuality too?
