[quote=NotSoAnonymous]Q: Do you think or have you observed gay parents generally being more strict than straight parents? I know a black friend of mine was always told by her parents that she had to be exemplary b/c society would judge her more harshly than her white counterparts. So they were pretty strict. I know it's not quite the same thing but I'm curious. =) A: I don't think so. I think your friend's mom was probably worried about negative stereotypes regarding people of color (lazy,loud,etc). A more similar worry that I sometimes have is that people will judge my sensitive sweet boy who likes to sing and dance more than rough and tumble. He is who he is- I have no idea what his sexuality will end up, but I think people might judge my wife and I for not pushing him to do more traditionally "boyish" things. I realize this is stupid, but I still worry. [/quote]
