"I wanted to voice my strong opposition to this report, given that it contains numerous parts that are frankly unacceptable. It moves from recognising same-sex unions and families to assurances on protection for same-sex parents. I will never grow tired of repeating that there is only one kind of family: a father, a mother and any children they may have. I am not suggesting a ban on two people of the same sex living freely together, but the family is something else altogether and it must therefore have different guarantees and protective measures. The meaning of the terms ‘family’ and ‘parenthood’ derive from the very concept of humanity: indeed, only a union between a man and a women can lead to the conception of a new life and the continuance of the human race. We do not want to give in to these new ideas, which have sprung from nothing in recent years: human history and human nature cannot and must not be altered. Lastly, I would like to emphasise that the title of the report talked about equality between men and women, while all these references added to the text seem to be entirely different in content and significance."@en1
