Have you considered?
I work with lgbtq teens who are often in foster care and sometimes available for adoption. Have you considered seeking a child who you might be uniquely able to parent? I am not suggesting that gay parents should/do only raise gay children. I am suggesting that the system is brutal for lgbtq teens and you might be a fantastic parent for one of these children.
Just another perspective.
Louise Rafkin wrote a book called Different Mothers taken from interviews with children(step, bio, adoptive, foster) of lesbian moms. I recommend it. My daughter Sara was interviewed for the book.
Good luck and keep coming back to the board.
