[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I really think in 2021 there’s nothing to be sad about. [/quote] We were sad because we knew our child would struggle more. [/quote] Chicken/egg - this attitude is part of the problem. [/quote] Knowing that the current reality is that it's still more of a struggle is acknowledging a fact, which you can work to change--it's not causing it.[/quote] Queer parent here. I came out in the early 90s. I would say that the amount that I"ve struggled more than your average straight person has been minimal. It took some work and money (as it does for some straight people) to get pregnant and I've been very involved in political organizing to change some discriminatory laws, but for anyone living in an at least moderately liberal place, it is just not a big deal. For me the stressful part was dealing with family, who weren't anti but worried and stressing me out at various points.[/quote]
