Vox says Largest-ever study of same-sex couples' kids finds they're better off than other children. Another thing conservatives were wrong about. Of course there are caveats but this was an interesting rationale (that I've read previously, I think in a long Atlantic article).
"Study author Simon Crouch told ABC News in Australia that previous research suggests same-sex parents don't feel pressured into gendered roles, which lets them more freely adapt to the needs of the family. "So what this means is that people take on roles that are suited to their skill sets rather than falling into those gender stereotypes, which is mum staying home and looking after the kids and dad going out to earn money," Crouch said. "What this leads to is a more harmonious family unit and therefore feeding on to better health and well-being.""
