From my essay on www.parentsociety.com:
It’s all the rage, recently: lesbian and gay Hollywood personalities
raising babies. Even here on Parent Society, there have been stories
about gay parents: comedian and television host Rosie O’Donnell welcomed
the newest baby born in her large household; Glee and Nip/Tuck
producer Ryan Murphy welcomed a new baby into his family; and music
icon Elton John and his partner David Furnish recently announced the
birth of their second son.
And these are just the most recent gay and lesbian stars who have had
babies. There are plenty of others, like television star Neil Patrick
Harris and his partner David Burtka, who have recently welcomed children
into their hearts and homes.
While I admit to looking at my fair share of Us and People magazines,
and listening the fun news on the E channel, I’ve rarely been wooed by
the behaviors, fashions, or habits of those in the music industry,
Hollywood, or Broadway. I choose other people in this world as role
models, people whose life stories make me realize that I am in the
presence of someone who has courage or charity of heart. However, I am
aware that I live in a society in which people’s very lives are modeled
after celebrity stars and starlets … how else can we explain all the
attention given to the Kardashians?
