00:00It's the day every parent dreams of.
00:02You guys should know there's someone in my life.
00:04Mazel tov!
00:05When are we going to meet her?
00:07Until it happens.
00:09What if she's black?
00:10She could be my age.
00:11We don't even know if she's Jewish.
00:12I mean, I just want to know who he's with.
00:14I'm his mother, so I have barging rights.
00:17Who are you?
00:20Nelson has a secret.
00:22I think it's time that you know what's going on in my life.
00:25I'm gay.
00:26I'm gay!
00:27My son is gay!
00:29How did he get this way?
00:30Maybe it's you.
00:31No.
00:32Me?
00:33I breastfed my son until he was about three.
00:35Three months?
00:36No, three years.
00:37Wow.
00:38Are you telling me that I may be responsible for turning my son gay?
00:42You think it was me?
00:43No!
00:44You have to go in there and face your fears, or else you're never going to be able to handle this.
00:47I don't live far from here.
00:48I'm actually here just to do a little research.
00:50Sorry, professor.
00:51Let me know if you need a specimen.
00:52Nelson, if you'd come to me sooner, you were like a son to me.
00:55Sooner?
00:56You and I could have fixed this.
00:57Just because he came out...
00:59I have an appointment to see Martin Hirsch.
01:03...doesn't mean they're giving in.
01:05Would it be possible for you and my son, Nelson, to...
01:09You want me to screw Nelson?
01:11We like each other, but in a friendship kind of way.
01:13Couldn't that friendship go a little deeper for 10 or 15 minutes?
01:15And after that...
01:16Maybe.
01:17My boy would veer in a different direction.
01:19God!
01:20What should we do?
01:21Give us a sign!
01:22Marty, if our son is really gay, we have to learn to live with it.
01:27I want to meet his parents.
01:28Why? So we can figure out which one's the bride and we'll know who's paying for the wedding?
01:31I brought photos.
01:32Golden Gloves Featherweight.
01:34That's my boy.
01:35Featherweight, that's when you're light on your feet, right?
01:37What do we have here?
01:38Your son was a friggin' male cheerleader!
01:40When their world fell apart...
01:42I want to take the next step.
01:44At the heart of the controversy is the adoption of a baby by a gay couple.
01:48...love brought them together.
01:50Who is the father of this baby?
01:52He is.
01:53And the mother?
01:54He is.
01:55What? My she?
01:56Let me unburden your soul.
01:57Thank you, Daddy.
01:58With a unique perspective.
02:11Ivey, my son is gay!
02:13Now I know.
02:14And now you know.
02:15And when you know, everybody knows.
