A new long-term study of children of lesbian parents has been announced. Fundies loudly make the claim that gay and lesbian parents are the most evil thing that could happen to a child, so there have been lots (maybe 200?) studies to find the truth. Of course, this study -- like every last one of the others (that doesn't have suspicious research techniques) -- found there is no detriment to having gay or lesbian parents. However, this one added a new wrinkle to the debate. There are some areas in which children raised by lesbians were better than kids of straight parents. These areas were better self-esteem, confidence, academics, and less rule-breaking and aggression. The big factor seems to be that because the lesbian couples have to spend a lot of effort and money to have kids, these kids are definitely wanted.
A bodybuilder is annoyed that every time he takes his shirt off it becomes a political statement. No, not a Dem/GOP thing. The tone of comments from others imply how dare he make them feel inferior! They have body issues and take it out on him, accusing him of sculpting those muscles to mask his own psychological insecurities.
The Onion thinks we should be more concerned about the massive toxic spew coming out of the mouths of BP executives. They might be up to 70,000 words a day.
