I'm gay. And they can be whatever they want, but being straight is easy mode. And I don't want my kid to have to go through shit I've been through. But then again, it's different times now so I dunno.

Straight so I can have a proper family.

i.e. he gets a girl, marries, has children, become a grandpa, hang out in Heaven, etc.

I mean it'd be easier to bond if he was straight just because I'd understand him more.

He can be whatever he wants though. I wouldn't disown him either way.

I don't mind whether or not my kids are gay or straight. Some family members wouldn't be too happy unfortunately, but those are my babies. If one of them happens to be trans then that'll be a challenge. I've never had a family like that yet so I wouldn't really know how to handle it.

Their life would be easier if they were straight, so that's my answer, but I would still love them the same amount regardless of if they were straight or gay. It's not a choice, so you can't fault them for it.

I would prefer a gay son.

Why? Because they now make more money than straight men:

Id imagine being gay with a gay son would open you up to all sorts of shitty implications as well.

That's slowly changing, though.

It's getting harder and harder for anti-gay people to be an avowed homophobes. Being anti-gay is regarded as unacceptable in today's day and age. And that only continues to increase.

Plus I would say that having to deal with adversity can make kids stronger. They know what it's like to be "other" so they work much harder and don't take things for granted so much.

Straight.

Given that sexuality ultimately plays a large roll in how people live their lives (children, family, the innate urge to produce offspring), having a sexuality that is counter to 90% of the population can be rough to deal with, even if our society became even more accepting of gay people.

One study found 57% of gay males over 45 are single. At that age, being single does not sound too appealing to me, and I imagine not for most others, either.

"The purpose of the study was to discover unique challenges the LGBTQ population experiences as they age, focusing on (lack of) support networks.

Over three quarters of all the survey respondents reported that they were worried about having adequate family or social support systems as they grow older."

Saying "proper" family is iffy but it wouldn't have been moderated if not for the heaven part. Why would you mention getting into heaven other than to troll? And then trying to predict that people would get offended at it. At least own up to trolling instead of trying to be a victim.

But what would a good Christian be if not trying to act like everything is an attack on their beliefs?

You're not wrong, but it will never be as easy. One of my friends does surrogacies for gay couples, so you're kind of dependent on stuff like that. And let's face it, teenage boys are probably never going to be completely chill with it. It also depends what part of the world you're in and what kinds of shifts exist in our future. Tolerance isn't an ever-improving thing. There are definite backslides.
