I don't mind lesbians adopting kids but I would be uncomfortable about two men adopting a child because of the greater chances that they might be pedophiles and what a fucked life that kid would have if they indeed were.
So let's see... in the
official database, there are 1811 known offenders per million in the State of California (which is one of the highest numbers of all the states). Let's assume that half the population is men, which means 1811 out of 500,000.
So .36% of all men in the state of California are known pedophiles, which covers a wide range of crimes. If you have a gay couple, I guess that doubles the odds to .72% that one of them will a pedophile... although this is no different than a het marriage where the man is a pedophile and the wife is present to "stabilize the situation" and help prevent the child from being molested. So at this point we have no real difference between het and male gay marriages, as we have one offending parent and one upright parent to provide a counterbalance.
Now, to actually have both men be pedophiles and thus leave the child with no resource is .36% x .36% = .1296% that both men will be pedophiles, thus meaning the evils of having two male parents will be visited upon the poor child. Yes, this is definitely a sharp increase of danger to all children. Regardless of all the crap kids go through non-related to sex offenses in a typical het family and yet no one is considering keeping children away from male/female pairings.
Of course, I'm not really sure why neither offender would be picked up on a rigorous adoptive-family background check -- they're going to be under MORE scrutiny and if there's any known record, so much for THAT -- but I'm left feeling like your comment makes about as much sense as body-searching all the Muslims of either gender at the airport while letting the happy white Christian folk pass through to their plane flight.
Let's get something straight here: They're GAY... attracted to adults of the same gender... not pedophiles who are attracted to children.
If you're going to say things like this, please be prepared to tell all fathers that they shouldn't be allowed to raise daughters because, since they're attracted to women, they might molest their daughters and we can't really trust them. And if only one man in 700 molests his daughter, that should be enough to take all daughters away from their dads.
