The family angle is fair enough, but for the rest, they are better educated and make more money on average.

AWWWWW come on, Dennis. Give it a break. When you are a member of a minority group, you are by definition, different. You should expect to be treated differently by those in the majority and, usually, by the other minorities. And don't get me wrong. I do not particularly dislike gay folks. Nor do I particularly like them. The one's I have known in nearly sixty years of living either took some advantage of a young innocent boy (yeah! me) or had some large hang-up involving a persecution complex. And, FWIW, the childhood abuse did not turn me into a gay person nor a gay hater. Neither did it make me a crybaby with a constant whine about my lot in life. I surely did not choose to get deaf early, though I cope with it. I also did not choose many other attributes, both physical and mental, that have caused me grief at various times. I, and I may speak for others lurking here, appreciate your situation with homosexual children. I think I can feel your pain to some degree (see above references to childhood)but it appears that your disappointment in their sexual development is a bigger challenge to you than it is to them. Why not ask them, either of them, to take a seat at your keyboard and describe what they think brought about this state of affairs?
