Are the children of gay parents more likely to become homosexual?

[Ethel]

That just makes much sense as saying that having a violent or a tolerant father will not make any difference in the upbring of the children.

Except that violence is learned, homosexuality is innate, I'm unable to see the logic in your comparison.

Brazil is basically the country more openly to homosexuals that I've ever been to.

Oh, I'm sure you might be experienced in the matter in order to make such statement, can you tell me which letter of the LGBT acronym do you fit in?

You can prove that violence is learned and homosexualism is innate???
Great step in genetics here.
Teach us pls.

The fact I'm not homosexual will not disqualify my opinion because this is clear as it could be: Brazil even has A POP STAR IDOL THAT IS A MAN THAT MAKE SHOWS DRESSED LIKE A FEMALE (and has a hit singing about sex, appeared in the most powerful TV channel of the country being idolized and has even straight fans from both sexes). How come a country like that would force "straight behaviour"?!

Without even mention tons of flamboyant men in a city like São Paulo that goes around making a lot of noise and looking for attention.
The homos in "telenovelas"

Spoiler!

and so on... Brazil is like a gay and wh're heaven. Stop the non-sense.
But if you are talking about families that does not accept homos, that is for sure, they love their kin and they would not like to see their genetical chain simply break, but as a society Brazil is really open to homos.

Yes, the parents affect the child.

[PaleoEuropean]

I have taken developmental psychology, I would say it doesn't help but it depends on what sexuality the person is exposed to in their formative adolescent years. About 50% of our sexuality comes from nature and the rest is experience or exposure. Usually homosexuals have taken part in some type of homosexuality/been exposed or abused in some manner before adulthood imo, they word it differently in textbooks; but its fairly easy to infer what they mean. Another aspect is socialization. Individuals that don't fit in the pecking order or have a sense of identity are more likely to be gay imo.

Is Homosexuality Genetic or Influenced by Context? It is almost certain that the behavior of the parents can influence the behavior of the children.
what kind of advice (related to sexuality) can give a gay father to his son ?

[coolfrenchguy]

i have heard something on that matter years ago from a psychanalist or a psycholgist,indeed, not,also many gay parents are raising there kids very well they are very present,aside they sexual orientation they have tendency to be better than some recomposed nuclear families,is paradoxal, many very judgmental psycho-rigid straight people,are looking always for some excuses,i remember you than i'am not homophobic i seperate sexuality and the sexual orientation from the person and the behaviour,in general gay parents are more to care to raise there kids in a proper frame,they are more pedagogue,because they known than they are not the standard role model,and they care to seperate they adult private life from there kids very strongly,for sure some questions are asking and they have support if necessary from psychotherapists.
i will made my devil's advocate : admitting than you know two kids
the first one is from a single mother with a low life physically abusive stepfather always drunk in a low class family ,with a lot of drama, because the bullier is carrying money at home, where the social services don't care so much because the bullier is a cop (i know very cliché)
and another one with loving gay parents with an high social status ,well raised,and with a lot of good activities like sport,good grade notes etc...and who like his/her opposite gender
wich family did you choose personally i prefer the second one,what i want to explain it's not because you are gay ,green skined or from planet mars than your kids became gay green skinned or martian, homosexuality is very welll define ,like heterosexuality, no it's not genetic,seriously? it's a more complex than that
and i'am not a bible junky either but i like these wise words from pope françois "If a person is gay and seeks the Lord with good will, who am I to judge it? (...) We must be brothers"
seriously the christian sects in USA with all these fake evangeli$t$ are brainswashing people to the point than it's became seriously near of mental illness ,like any kind of sect,one the of the worst beeing the watchtower,never seen so brainwashed
yes homosexuality is condamned in the monotheistic religions(to death? by stones?) is a fact,but please clean front of your door and don't mingle oranges and bananas,reducing people under a certain prism without having the will to understand is not helping anyone
yes the lobby is a threat for the society in a large scale ,especially in the US, and for the nuclear family and the gender role model, i admit it, i understand than for the religious middle-agers,it's still difficult to accept it,but please come on! not this short cut : gay parents=gay kids,it's too easy and a very lack of knowledge and intelligence.

Most homosexuals were abused as children, so yes.

Did you read one of my previous posts? It has some helpful/reviewed studies about the subject, but it's not like you care about it, isn't it? Otherwise, you would have at least done some research before and reached the obvious conclusion, instead of coming here to shit assumptions out of your ass.

The fact I'm not homosexual will not disqualify my opinion

Your opinion can't be disqualified because it is just what it is: your opinion. Now, I wonder if anyone would take the opinion of someone who has literally zero authoritativeness to speak about seriously.

Brazil even has A POP STAR IDOL THAT IS A MAN THAT MAKE SHOWS DRESSED LIKE A FEMALE

OMG We have a LGBT Icon, I feel so safe to walk around hand in hand with my boyfriend now!

Most homosexuals were abused as children, so yes.

The year is 2019 and I have to read from Straight Guys™ when one becomes and how it is to be gay the prices I pay for being literate

Can gays have children?

Not yet.

I understand you but it is not a great example, the same could I say what you prefer between a healthy couple of a father and a mother both without problems and a toxic couple of 2 men or 2 womens?
Did you know that as there is violence and abuse in heterosexual families there are also many cases in homosexual families?
