I hope the response to it was good and not defensive and argumentative as i see alllllll the time on a choice mom group i'm in. how crazy for a group that faces discrimination everyday to be discriminatory against another person. would they rather she had just lied and said she was a lesbian? yeeesh. wow. that’s really something. what you wrote was so eloquent.

I haven't been to your blog in a while and didn't know you were actively TTC. Congratulations for being ready for that! And good luck with it. :) I love how you stood up for that woman (and for all people)!

I think it's great that you stood up for the rights for all. I hate exclusions and don't ever think that support a positive culture for anybody. Good job!

We are who we are...they are who they are. In my opinion, there is room enough for everyone. If they really feel that strongly that only a Lesbian mother identify with Lesbian mothers, then that is their choice. But, if the intention of the group is to share and learn from other people’s experience, then they are missing out on a whole other world.

I hate exclusions as well. I think we are all just humans who need support. Just my 2 cents :) I think you following what you think is right is fabulous. I hate exclusions as well.
