Maybe, maybe not. TIME Magazine did a cover story on gay teens in America. Among their findings was that more teens were coming out, were coming out earlier, and that teens today, being raised in a culture where homosexuals have been more open and visible, are far more tolerant of homosexuality than their parents.

This matches with a report on NPR about a poll done by (Q, Cue, Kew?) Research, in which it was determined that anti-gay sentiments were dramatically lower among people who actually know some gay people.
that is definitely encouraging. but i think much of it depends on environment. sadly, not all gay couples move to tolerant neighborhoods.
thank you for the link, sonart. i'll share it with a girlfriend of mine who is also looking to adopt with her partner. she shares my fears, and i believe it will do her some good. :)
