"Heterosexual lust is not a necessary element of the desire to have children or a family."Here is where we disagree.
That's cool how you referenced a case.
I'm so far from the end of my tether right now that I reckon I could knit myself some socks with the slack.

I know gay men with boys (only one family) and lots of lesbians with both boys and girls. I think, given the fact that it is very common for women (single mothers, for instance) to be primary caregivers to both male and female children, women might have less of the anxiety Odaiko describes about having children of one sex or the other. And Odaiko, I don't think you should worry too much. Plenty of women who are helpless in sports and such have reared perfectly butchity little boys. You would do just fine. The lesbians I have known who have had children have had female children. Of course those were biological children, and this is anectdotal, FWIW.I also agree with the bolded part of Miss P's statement. That is because I have good reason to believe that one's personality largely determined at birth (I know this is a controversial point of view, but if you knew my daughters you would understand why I feel that way).
