I'm pretty sure you can have gay dads without them being married.
Quite...and I don't see them being married anyways. And if they were, I think that'd be waaaaayyyyy outside the norm for such high nobility.

Yeah. I'm betting they weren't overt about it. Chances are that the Arl's biological dad is a widower, or otherwise has an arrangement with his wife to keep up appearances. Arl might have had his father's "best friend" around growing up though.

Then Eamon doesn't have two dads. He has a dad and a man his dad is sleeping with. Since the dad and the other man aren't married, there is no family connection between the other man and Eamon.
Awwww. Arl Eamon had two gay dads.
Now if only we could actually see two gay dads in game. Or two moms.
Yes!!
Still, this is an amazing start and I'm pleased as punch that they are going to leave this one be. ![]()
A lack of marriage doesn't change if someone is a dad to a child or not. It doesn't matter in that case, it's how they raised the kid together. If Arl's father's partner was just as much of a parent to the Arl as his biological father was, then he had two dads. ![]()
Im pretty sure this was braught up before. the homosexual nobles would mary for conveniance and simply carry on regardless. simply shareing a house and name. im sure it was brought up in a thread and was a note about aferes or something

Are you serious? There are plenty of people whose parents aren't married (including straight couples). Or even biologically related to them. It has a lot more to do with who raised them than anything else. The parents don't even have to be romantically or sexually interested in each other.
I just, this is too much...

Uh, you're flat wrong. You don't have to be married to get 2 dads.
I love how that second gif looks almost vaguely threatening, eyezonlyii.

If Eamon's father and his male partner were the ones that raised him and loved him, then that is enough to make them his dads.

I don't see what this has to do with anything
And nowhere does it say a goddamn thing about marriage.

The definition of parent doesn't mention anything about marriage
And they don't have to be a biological mother or father or even married to be one
So, a parent is a purely biological function and has no impact on raising a kid? You have to donate genetic material and/or be legally married to be a parent?

Yes they can be. If Eamon considers the other man his dad, then that man is his dad. There is a distinct difference in being a father and a dad (to me at least). So long as he spent timed with him, cared for him, built him up emotionally and was generally there in his life, he is a dad.

Yes, to be a parent you must either be one of the people to biologically create the child or married to one of those two people. The only exception I can think of is adoption, but I highly doubt Eamon is adopted since his father is still alive.

I don't know why but the word "partner" always irked me. It makes it sound too formal and like business partner or something. You don't hear that word from straight couples that often but that seems to be exclusively gay in most cases. ![]()

On topic: If they raised him, they are his dad's. If one fathered him and then left . It would just be Father (at least to me)
what if he was a Foundling or Adopted they are still his parents.
So apparently Martha and Jonathon Kent were not Clark's parents. Good to know.
