Homosexuals Adoption

Introduction

The possibility of child adoption by homosexual couples is a matter on which a psychoanalyst working with children cannot remain silent, but the deal means that clarifies its position on a number of points.

Recent debates on the PACS have indeed shown that it was far from done with hatred and rejection of difference (LaMarre, pp. 767-74). A length of columns, homophobes of all stripes have once again sung the credo of "normality" and denounced homosexuality on the side of pathology. It is not my intention to bring water to this mill there.DiscussionPsychoanalyst View

For a psychoanalyst, the idea of "normality" applied to sexuality makes no sense. There is indeed at first, in every being, psychic bisexuality, that is to say the ability to err on the side of the masculine or feminine regardless of their anatomical sex (Esposito & Biafora, pp. 18-24).

 This recognition implies she is a homosexual couple "the same" as a heterosexual couple? Obviously not. However, much this shift and operate, claiming the "right to indifference" in fact, heard as undifferentiated right to (sexual) - require that homosexual couples have the right "as heterosexual couples" to adopt children. It seems a grievous mistake. To fight for the right to be different because the right to adopt - if granted - would effectively undo the progress that is the recognition of homosexual couples (Mortenson, pp. 839-43). For children who need parents of different sexes to be built and I'll try to explain it by saying that I speak of the right to adoption and not for parents "become homosexual" who still - after divorce for example - to raise their children (Williams, pp. 135-142).A child missing from the debate

The main problem posed by the adoption is not, as some would have us believe whether male or female homosexuals are "able" to raise a child. They are clearly no less than anyone. It is that adoption is for a child whose parents could not raise the possibility of having parents' equivalent to its biological parents. Allow adoption by homosexual couples would be tantamount to saying:

That the adoptive parents (homosexuals) can be the equivalent of its "birth parents" (necessarily heterosexual).

Therefore, that sexual difference does not exist. In any case, not as likely ... difference to difference, it does "not count", that is - to borrow a word from memory loss - a "detail" of life.

What would it matter to put this child (and with it, everyone else) in a world where sexual difference would be designed as an accessory (Boyer, pp. 228-42)? One can understand that if one is from the perspective of the child, but we must see one of the characteristics of this debate is that the child as a person, as a "subject" is absent. It is about a child-object. Evidenced by the book's flagship claim for the right to adopt children, "The desire for children is no less strong in homosexual than heterosexual. Thus, the homosexual must have the same rights as heterosexual, by compared to this [...], a homosexual should ...
