Bias Suit Settled Against Adoption.Com

By Christopher

ADVERTISEMENTS
Two adoption websites that refused to serve same-sex couples have reached a settlement with a gay couple from California that sued them in 2003. One of the websites, ParentProfiles.com, will stop doing business in California rather than allow same-sex couples to use the site. (California law specifically outlaws discrimination based on sexual orientation, the websites are based out of state).

While some are viewing this as a victory for gay rights, I'm appalled that ParentProfiles.com would rather not do business at all in California if it meant it had to let same-sex couples use the site.
