Two same-sex parents better than none at all
Whatever their reasons, for any homosexual put off from coming to Hong Kong because same-sex marriage is not recognised, there is probably just as likely to be a heterosexual who is encouraged to come for that same reason. But that is not very relevant to the main issue.
I admit to finding it hard to understand why homosexuals want to get married but, as I am a happily married heterosexual, that is not surprising. What matters is that my marriage is just as happy as it was before various countries and states began to allow same-sex marriages, and will remain so when Hong Kong does the same; why should it be otherwise?
Ms Li must learn to live and let live. She must also learn to compare apples with apples.
To compare the lot of children adopted by same-sex couples with those who have a loving, caring mother and father, is unrealistic. They are not the same children. Most adopted children are from homes, or a series of homes, or a series of foster parents. They are there because they are orphans, or unwanted, or deserted by parents who could not cope, or were ruled unfit to parent.
Two loving, caring parents of the same sex are better than none and, arguably sometimes better than only one.
