"Interviewer: Are you in favour of adoption for same-sex couples? Venier: Of course! I really can't understand why there are so many preconceptions. There's a lot of talk about it, but no one understands that behind this issue there is only one word: love, and it's all simpler than it seems. When I talk to friends and colleagues, I always ask, 'Do you really think a child is better off in an orphanage than with two people ready to give them lots of love?"
