But it's amazing how many people think that gay men should slink off into the shadows when it comes to having friendships with children.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I think that there's no doubt that as I see friends, families, children of gay couples who are thriving, you know, that has an impact on how I think about these issues.
I believe very firmly that gay people of every stripe and age should be role models for all children, and that means interacting with them.
I've always had mostly gay male friends.
You don't really see too many straight friendships between men and women on 'Mad Men.'
I have straight married friends that other friends think are gay, and I have gay friends who don't throw that vibe at all. I know there's a full range out there, but I feel that gay men who aren't flamboyant are underrepresented on-screen.
I have hardly any friends who aren't gay.
I have so many gay friends that I love.
A gay man can be friends with a straight man. That can happen.
Instead of plotting the demise of the traditional family, as some politicians and religious leaders would have you believe, gay people mow their lawns and watch 'American Idol' and video their children's concerts and have the same hopes and dreams that their straight counterparts do.
If there is a substantial difference between a gay couple and a childless heterosexual couple, I'm unable to see it.
