i'm on the fence here...
one one hand, i don't think a child of a same s3x marriage has the upbringing to know what a man/woman is supposed to grow from. but, i also think nature has part in it as well. examples:
sister in law is guay. she has spurned almost every male member of her family (won't talk to her father or brother, i don't think she likes me or her cousins' husbands). her father/mother got divorced when she was a teen...went to college and voila she's guay, in a relationship, and now has a daughter that her wife gave birth to. funny thing is, sis-in-law treats her like a boy, where sis-in-law's wife treats her like a girl. (this is nurture IMO)
two of their guay friends have a 2 year old son, who was running around in a DRESS and was being told that he was very pretty... (nuture again... how on earth is he going to know he's supposed to be handsome and NOT wearing a dress when his mothers and all their guay friends are treating him like a girl...)
here's the nature part:
i have a friend who is transgender. the best explanation he-turned-she can get is that in the womb, his/her brain was washed with too much estrogen at a time where it should have been washed with testosterone... s/he was a very "normal" boy. parents are not divorced, had a younger brother that he picked on, but never really knew how to be around the brother/father. for 15 years, he struggled with not understanding why his brain was acting "weird" and was very self destructive.
since getting the estrogen treatment, and dressing like a woman, and acting like a woman, she is one as normal of a woman (well, as normal as they can get...) as any gender-birthed women out there. and yes... she's now talking about dating guys...
so... i honestly think it's a mixture of nature AND nurture... but i truly think in a same s3x marriage the nurture is at an extreme advantage...
