Considering Data from a "Bisexual Conservative"

"I cherish my mother’s memory, but I don’t mince words when talking about how hard it was to grow up in a gay household."

Robert Lopez, a bisexual Latino intellectual, raised by a lesbian, defending the maligned study of gay parenting by UT sociologist Mark Regnerus. Read the entire Lopez article. It's a fascinating look at what made a bisexual a conservative. It will be interesting to see whether Regnerus's study, which failed to follow the current cultural script, will survive the contemporary academy's preference for advocacy over inquiry.
