"Ironically, the same conservatives who today argue that children raised by lesbian or gay couples will be confused about gender are the ones who argued most loudly in the 1970s—and, again, were 100 percent correct—that gender was innate. You would think these same conservatives would be confident that the innate sense of gender identity that thwarted a generation of feminist moms and sensitive dads would overcome whatever confusion a child raised by same-sex parents might have about his gender. But, no, Conservatives insist that a boy given a doll by his feminist parents will rip its legs off and point them at people and say “Bang!”, but a grown man raised by two gay men won’t know what to do with a grown woman’s actual legs."
