some good, some bad, some perfectly capable of being good parents,
other not nearly capable,
the criteria for adoption should be based on the individual cadidates, irefardless of being gay or not,
thinks, like a support system, the home, stability, general abilities of the adopters are most important, not wether they are gay or not,
lots of straight people are high on drugs burning cigarette wholes in there kids skin,
while gay couples are working and living healthy lives, and could care and raise a child easily like most straight people, most gay people are not monsters,
so stop the hatting,

It seems I got misunderstood. I don;t agree with alexg on the following:
"letting gay couples adopt children means forcing gay lifestyle and gay parents on the children, and I don't support that"
but I agree that gay couples adopting kids is not an easy yes.
It doesn't have anything to do with gay or lesbians. My concern is if the kids will manage to grew normally without psychological problems in a society that doesnt accept gay people as it should. There's nothing worse than a depressed kid, a kid with psychological problems. A single event, phrase, scene can affect a kid for a lifetime and that's what I worry the most.
If a single male parent can grow with no problems a kid, then two men can do the same.
It's not about who the parents are, but is related with the society standards. It's a question scientists are in better position to answer than the rest of us.
A grown man on his first sexual contact receives a negative comment and for the rest of his life is affected. Can you guarantee me for example that the comments about the sexuality of their parents in school won't affect them for a lifetime?
