Any single gay fathers here?

[applejuice]

I have a good friend who is gay. He has a partner together they have adopted two children. Both are professional men.

Is there a place for them on this forum? I would like to recommend this place for him for problems that pop up as a parent or as a working parent or parent of a child in school with learning disablities.

I'd love to have them around! I have a number of friends who are two daddy families I'm sure they would also have some things in common with members of the adoption forum.

My daughter's daddy is a single gay man. He doesn't post here though, and I don't know any single gay fathers who do. Or any gay fathers for that matter. Or any fathers...

[mshollyk]

yes, of course there is a place for them here

[thismama]

Oooooh sorry! I misread, I'm tired tonight. I thought you were looking for single gay fathers to connect with your friend. Duh.

Yes I definitely think there is a place for them here. He would be in the minority for sure, but once one comes, maybe more gay fathers would follow.

i would love to have some gay (male) parents around here. i have lots of gay friends, but none of them are parents.

Thanks.

I was thinking about this thread and I realized there is queer parentling, single parenting and a dad's forum here. He is religious also, so the religious studies thread would be good also..

Thank you. Just wanting to help a friend. Many of you are great here and I wanted to share with a friend in IRL.

I'm not exactly a father. I'm TTC right now, I'm a trans guy, and I'm single. I'm also very, very queer. I think "gay" might be too mainstream for me!

I think he will find it a welcoming place! I have!

[applejuice]

I tease his partner and call him the "manny"!

[thismama]

Oooh Papa, I assumed you were straight (well culturally queer, but into women, if that makes sense). Sorry about that assumption.

I'd be happy to answer any questions you might have.

I should warn you though, my story isn't particularly interesting.
