Polyamorous Oakland family finds parenting easier with two moms and a dad
SF Gate ^ | March 11, 2015 | Amy Graff

An Oakland family has found what they think is the key to a happy household: three parents. Two women named Melinda and Dani Phoenix and the man they both consider their husband, Jonathan Stein, are in a polyamorous relationship and parenting two babies together under the same roof.

Melinda and Dani began their relationship as a lesbian couple and became domestic partners in 2010. A year later, Jonathan joined them as the third partner and the three married last summer in a ceremony that is not legally recognized.

Now they’re sharing their story to raise awareness about polyamorous families and hope that some day these arrangements can be widely accepted and legally recognized. With children entering their picture, they feel gaining support from the community is more important than ever.

It took it twelve years to show its true colors.

A righteous flame out, courtesy of The Man Himself!

Thank you, Jim!

Flashback to the “Flower Children” and their “love fests.” It’s just back with a different name.

It never ceases to amaze me that this kind of thing happens. It's curious, because it seems to me that one would tend to become more conservative with age and exposure to conservative principles. Ah, well.

In fact there are more HIV infected people who are not gay.

You are a zotted liar.

HIV Among Gay and Bisexual Men - CDC

Gay and bisexual men are more severely affected by HIV than any other group in the United States.

Gay, bisexual, and other men who have sex with men (MSM)a represent approximately 2% of the United States population, yet are the population most severely affected by HIV.

In 2010, gay and bisexual men accounted for 63% of estimated new HIV infections in the United States and 78% of infections among all newly infected men. From 2008 to 2010, new HIV infections increased 22% among young (aged 13-24) gay and bisexual men and 12% among gay and bisexual men overall.

It just wasn’t paying attention. “Not a Christian,” and its “god” is obviously not God, but the other, evil one.
