‘A FAY LIKE OURS’: PORTRAS OF GAY FATHERHOOD

Most children whose dads are gay were born while their blogil mom and blogil dad were married and livg together.

If you have a gay dad or a lbian mom, after they separate, which of them is most likely to remarry or to remarry and then divorce? Lbian moms are more likely than gay dads to marry their same-sex partner.

But gay dads are ls likely to get divorced om their hbands than lbian moms are to get divorced om their wiv. Gay men may experience more discrimatn than lbians, pecially if they are parents.
