Homosexuality (2) - LGBT Adoption

Hello beautiful people,
a few days ago I had a long discussion with my parents, which dealt with LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender) adoption. After the news from the USA latley, you will probably all know what LGBT means. If you haven't watched any news, I will shortly explain what happened. The USA declared same-sex marriage legal in the whole USA. This was a huge step for the equality of same-sex couples and I can say that this made me very happy for all couples that are now finally able to get married.

One thing though, that is still not legal everywhere for LGBT couples is to adopt children. It is currently legal in 21 countries and also in some small terretories.
Personally I think that this is already a huge amount of countries, but in my opinion more countries should legalize the LGBT adoption. In this post here I'm going to share my opinion on this kind of adoption with you. I really hope that you agree with me because in the end we are all the same and the world should get more tolerant.

Whenever I had this discussion with friends or family, one of the arguments against the adoption was that the children could get bullied. Also the parents from the other children could forbid their children to play with this child because of the parents.
Okay, so I partly agree with that. I also think that there are people who wouldn't want their children to be with kids from LGBT couples. Some people are just not that tolerant and would have someh´thing against those couples. On the other side this would teach kids from a young age to be more tolerant towards people that maybe seem different. I don't think that this argument should be the one to stop legalizing the LGBT adoption.
For sure it could be that the kids get bullied. But if I could e.g. choose between living in an orphanage, in a violent family or in a family that loves me and cares about me, I would choose living in a loving and caring family.

Those families using domestic violence are (mostly) allowed to have children but not the ones who would care about their kids, just because they aren't "normal".

This is probably what bothers me the most about this whole situation. Who says that LGBT couples would be bad parents. Or more specific: Who says that they would be worse parents than any other couple. In my opinion they would be better parents than some others. I don't say that all of them would be better or something, I just don't think that all of them would be worse. (I don't know if you understand what I just said. Sometimes my sentences can be a little confusing. Sorry.)

My opinion is that this adoption should be legalized everywhere. I wouldn't mind living in such a family and I don't think that it is wrong in any way. Maybe some people say that the world is not ready for this, but we will never know if the world is ready for this if we don't try it.
There have already been so many changes in the past years and we should all agree that we are all equal. There is nothing wrong with who you love and just because you feel like living in the wrong body or because you're homo-/ or bisexual, nobody should see you as different. We are who we are and we can't change that.

Love who you love and don't let people judge you because of that.

Well, this is my opinion on LGBT adoption. What do you think about it? Do you agree with me or do you think it shouldn't be legalized?
I would love to have a discussion with you down below in the comments.

I will hopefully talk to you very soon,

Homosexuality (1)

Hello again.

The topic of this blogpost is homosexuality so I think it is pretty obvious what I am going to write about.

But to those people who don't know what homosexuality is, it is lovig a person with the same gender. So boys love boys and girls love girls.
For a long time the situation for homosexuals was much worse in my opinion.
In some countries in the world same-sex marriage has already been granted for some years.
The first country to grant the marriage of two people of the same gender was the Netherlands in 2001. But still not all countries think this kind of marriage is right.
This is not the only problem.

Many people still don't get that homosexual people can't do anything about it. It's simple as that: Nobody is able to choose who he/she wants to love. You can't decide wether you fall in love with a boy or a girl.

Some people still think this kind of love is wrong. They think they have the right to bully the ones that they think are "different".
I always wonder what those bullies will do if they find out they are also gay or lesbian.

I know that media often talks about this topic and I probably can't change your opinion but I just wanted to tell you that it is ok to love whoever you want.
Maybe some people will tell you it is wrong or whatever. Honestly you should stop listening to them.
As the human rights say we are all equal no matter what.

I hope that you share my opinion and I just wanted to get this out of my head
