Is homosexuality destroying our family structure?

Re: Is homosexuality destroying our family structure?

I think gender used to imply a known and established division of labor, which it no longer does. So it is not homosexuality which is threatening our family structure. It’s that we do not always know how to deal with the many responsibilities that are part of being adults and family members. Society does not clearly tell us anymore what we are supposed to do, so the division of labor is murky. In each home, the interactions amongst family members and their roles and responsibilities need to be newly defined and often reevaluated, in order to maintain happy and productive homes. That of course requires communication, something we are not all always good at.

Anyway, this kind of reevaluation needs to occur, whether the couple is gay or straight. And unless it does, stability is hard to find.
