In one of my lesson's at school today, we were talking about fertility treatments. I might as well start by saying that I'm gay, and that I really want children when I'm older.
So a question came up about whether lesbian women deserve the right to have a child, via something like IVF. A lot of the people sitting around me basically said no because it's unnatural and wrong. They were all saying how real families have a mum and a dad, and stuff. Two of the same gender can't bring up a child properly and crap. It's just made me really sad because I'm basically in the same position as a lesbian woman. I can't ever have children of my own without a surrogate mother and the likes of IVF.
I just felt really sad after they had all been so negative about a homosexual couple having children. It makes me think that I'll never get the chance to bring up children or continue my family.
I don't want to live a fake life though. As much as I hate it, I'm attracted to boys, and not girls.
I feel like my future is a dead end with no real prospect to it. Depressing.
