my morning

[rm]

I am writing an article on gay and lesbian adoption (the universe, zie is funny) while emailing with someone about an exciting project (basically, the coolest shit EVAR) I'll be able to talk about soon -- the director needs to know what my voice sounds like, and as I don't do voice over, all I've got is my Face of Boe podfic.

Bwahaah.

Is your article going to cover second-parent adoption as well? Because that is a laugh and a half, my friend, only... not.

It mentions it as a necessary step in many many cases both in terms of adoption and bio children being adopted by other parent. Basically the whole article is sort of like "this is a clusterfuck in general, and you're gay!"

Well, speaking from the nonbio-mom standpoint, I'd say that's a very strong thesis.

I quite sure I must have missed this, because it sounds too good not to be something I must have dreamed about, and I'd only remember if it was real.

Where will the article be published?

At my agency we are working on issues of legalizing two parent adoptions and also just building parenting capacity and social networks for LGBTQA parents (and ally parents of LGBT kids). And the local LGBT granting foundation sponsored a big "gay neighbor" billboard campaign to get oblivious straights to be more sensitive. Not sure how or if they are measuring effectiveness...
