No, ake..that's not always true.

One of my relatives is gay, and a really lovely chap too. He used to be married to a lesbian, who wasn't a lovely woman. She was mean and horrible to him, lazy as hell about their child, not an ounce of maternal instinct in her, whilst he had far more than most women.

The child grew up with her mother. Big mistake, her father would have brought her up very differently, with far more love. She turned him against her father for many years, as she had a total downer on many men in general. It broke his heart. He's always loved children, always, and his own daughter was very precious to him.

He's had two partners in near on 30 years. The first one died, and to be honest, if he hadn't, they may well have still been together, as they were so fond of one another, great friends as well as partners.

His ex-wife meanwhile, has had partner after partner after partner, and all those partners have been put *before* her only child, who grew up with many problems.

People are individuals, and for me, they don't act in the same way purely because of their sexual orientation. You're either a kind, thoughtful person, or you ain't.

Bobz, you should maybe talk to your lady about it all, perhaps tell her how you're feeling.
