  c. They find lesbians who are willing to carry their baby, but who do not want children of their own.
  d. There are no strategies that gay men can use to increase their chances of adoption since most people are fearful of gay men as fathers.

  a. No, the religious institutions in America have banned together to make sure that this form of adoption would not be permitted.
  b. Yes, it is fairly simple and no different from heterosexual couples seeking to adopt.
  c. Yes, but adoption agencies remain extremely homophobic and it is very difficult for potential gay parents to adopt.
