Anyone who knows me knows that I've always wanted to have a child. Granted, I'd always imagined it would be the old-fashioned way, but once I discovered that I was gay, that changed. Lately, we'd been thinking of how nice it would be to adopt a child from China -- most likely the child would bear some semblance to Andrea and with so many children in the world needing homes, it seemed like the best way to go.

However, reading the Adoption Process in China, I learned that's not an option. One of the items you must provide to the Chinese government is "A copy of your marriage certificate, or a statement that you are single, not homosexual, and hope to marry some day."

I'm so pissed off, I can't even speak. Looks like we'll be making that trip to the sperm bank after all.
