Adult Adoptees – The Men

There have been questions about adult male adoptees. Here is what I found this morning:

Jared Rehberg – Waking up American
This is his bio page, written by a friend. He has a few pictures from a trip to Vietnam here.

Dominic’s story
Not a blog, this is also more of a bio. He has a blog as well, but it seems to be just pictures without his thoughts included.

Dan O’Brien
Yeah, the Olympian. He’s a transracial adoptee, did ya’ll know that? This is an interview where he gives advice to adopted kids and their parents.

Dario’s Thoughts
Short and sweet. My guess is that someone asked him to write something and he did.

John Raible Online
He says he is a “…biracial adult adoptee and the adoptive parent of children of color”. He also warns that “…while my perspective might at first come across as angry, cynical, or despairing, I remain fundamentally optimistic about our capacity to change ourselves as individuals and to transform society at the macro level”. I haven’t pointed to any one post on his blog. He links to a number of pages in the top right column, look through them and click on what interests you. Most of his blog posts are just links to a PDF of an article posted elsewhere, though.

There are a few blogs I’ve come across in the past that I couldn’t find with a quick search this morning. They are blogs of grown male international adoptees, but they don’t really talk about being adopted all that much. They mostly talk about everyday stuff. I wanted to point to them anyway, but I can’t find them. Sorry.

If anyone knows of a site or blog I’ve missed please let me know. I’ll list them here:

ibastard
Ethnically Incorrect
Over a Candle
Wraith’s Wrealm
The Little KAD Prince
Persona Ingrata

    Thanks Truly Blessed – I just glanced through it and took the word of the person who emailed me the address. That’s why it was down on the bottom as an update. I’ll take it off.
