Why in Texas, of course.
And here's another reason for gay marriage to be legal.
A judge in Texas has denied a same-sex couple’s petition to adopt their month-old twin boys.
Jason Hannah, 36, and Joe Riggs, 33, are the proud fathers of twins Lucas and Ethan, who were born of the same surrogate mother. Each biologically fathered one of the twins, and the boys — who are half-brothers — share an egg donor. One child is biologically Hanna’s, the other is Riggs.’
But neither Hannah nor Riggs, who were married in Washington D.C. last year, are listed as fathers on either of their sons’ birth certificates. They have petitioned to add each of their names to their biological sons’ birth certificates and to cross-adopt, or second-parent adopt, the boys, reports KDFW-TV.
But the judge, who says she “strictly follows the law,” has denied the couple’s adoption request.
