People with 3rd sex are also people and they also need the happiness of having a child of their own. But in your opinion, is it good for a 3rd sex parent to rear a child?

I think they are also legible to have their own child but I'm doubtful about how they will raise the kids. The child will have an immediate question in his/her mind why his father is a "she" or his mother is a "he".

What is 3rd sex? A transexual? I would never presume they would make a bad parent. You could ask yourself how people who blindly believe in something that can't be proven could possibly raise their child to be smart and able to tell fact from fiction (as in you know, God, Jesus, any religion).

Homosexual parents can make great parents as I've witnessed it. Heterosexual, married people with fantastic jobs can make horrible abusive parents. Or great ones.

I think anyone who will love that child and really put it's best interests and happiness first, will make a wonderful parent. No matter WHAT.

I really don't see who we are to judge others by their sexual orientation/religion/etc.

Homosexual couples can raise their children just as well as straight couples. Just depends on the people in question and how responsible they are.

That is my question too.

[quote=alexis;402370]3rd sex are considered to be people who are having the feeling that they have the opposite sex in their body, something like a woman trapped in a man's body.

About parenting, I think they have the capability of raising a child as long as they are responsible enough about the duties of a parent. Parenting is not about sex, its about rearing a child to grow-up a better person. As long as that person can meet this quality then he/she should be parent to a child even if he/she belongs to the 3rd sex.

I think anyone that is blessed with a child (maternal or not), as long as personal choices do not affect the well being of a child, all is well. I don't think that someones personal choice should make them any less a parent that some of the normal folk around.

First I've got to say I'm glad someone defined 3rd sex! I've never heard that term...Same as transgendered then huh? I think homosexual parents are no different that hetero, good and bad in both. Now as far as transexuals, or transgendered, (people dressing in the oppisite role), while I don't doubt for a second they can be wonderful parents, the only problem I have is the 'confusion' part for the child. You know what I mean? "Some times Daddy looks like a man, sometimes he looks like a woman, when he's a man people call him Hank, when he dresses like a woman, they call him Helen..." That's the only question I would pose.

If the people in government would get past their own issues with others sexuality, and think about what the law was (best interest of the child) I am sure many would be in better homes. I take this personal, my best friend from high school is a lesbian, and her love has a 5 year old, they are just fine and dandy, and he has no questions about having a mom and a step mom, and dad. Sometimes they are lucky, too bad the blind people cant see it.

It would seem to be confusing, wouldn't it? But I have to admit that the one family that I've known to have a "third sex" parent, the child was completely comfortable. This was a boy who's father lived as a woman full time (biological parents were never married). He actually called his father "mom" and his mother "mommy". The boy was about twelve when I knew them and he said other people could be ignorant but he knew "the facts". It's all the people who are less familiar with the situation that were confused...lol.
