Take that, you freakin' bigots

MANIFESTO

Item:

Being raised by a same-sex couple is no hindrance to healthy psychological development, researchers say as the first generation of children conceived by lesbians through donor insemination is coming of age.

In fact, lesbian mothers rated their 17-year-olds higher in social and academic skills, and lower in rule-breaking and aggression, than did mothers of teenagers who also had a father.

The study, which appears in the journal Pediatrics, is the first to follow children of lesbian couples all the way from conception to adolescence.

Knowing some lesbian couples who have raised (adopted) children with great success, this doesn't surprise me a whit, although it's sure to be repudiated by morons like the Focus on the Family crowd.
