There are references above (see the NYT article mentioned) to the situation where a Jewish couple was banned from adopting from a state funded, private adoption agency that only wanted parents that followed their “Christian biblical principles”.
Mark and Chase will discover that China doesn’t allow gay people to do intercountry adoption. Of course now there is at least one state in the US that allows private adoption agencies to bar Jews (as well as gay couples) from adopting.
I don’t remember that conversation with Nancy but to be honest I think that spending all that equivalent energy on romance novels (and I’m a librarian btw) will just set up unrealistic expectations that “the one” will have to live up to. Actually I liked Nil a lot and wish he had been a steady boyfriend for either Luann or Bernice.
I never understood why the Evanses had Bernice react to her strong attraction to Nil by turning their relationship into a completely non-physical friendship (and then apparently fixating on romance novel fantasies instead).
Men on this page seem fascinated by the idea that Luann and Bernice, simply by virtue of doing something together, are lesbians. Is this because a lot of men don’t like the style of dress that Bernice is wearing?
