This is about the equality of all people. All people in this world are equal and have the right to be treated as such. The sexual orientation of a person has no bearing on whether they can raise a child. As long as an individual meets all requirements for adoption they should be allowed to adopt based on how well they are prepared and the loving home they will provide and not by there sexual partner. So many children in this world need a home and will be so much better off with people who love them.
