Brad Pitt: Friend of the gays and potential PFLAG daddy

”I believe everyone should have the same rights. They say gay marriage ruins families and hurts kids. Well, I’ve had the privilege of seeing my gay friends being parents and watching their kids grow up in a loving environment… Would it bother me if a child of mine turns out to be gay? No, not one bit. Listen, I want my kids to live the lives they want to live. I want them to be fulfilled. I hope I teach my kids to be who they really are.”

Actor Brad Pitt, speaking about his life with Angelina Jolie, the meaning of marriage, and the children they share together. (Parade Magazine)
