The Family Stone is a feature film, released on December 16, 2005, depicting the holiday misadventures of the Stone family. The film stars Sarah Jessica Parker, Craig T. Nelson, Diane Keaton, Luke Wilson, Rachel McAdams, Claire Danes and Dermot Mulroney.

On a Christmas family gathering in New England, Meredith (played by Sarah Jessica Parker), the girlfriend of one of the family members, has difficulty getting accepted.

In one scene the mother tells that she has always hoped that all her three sons would turn out to be gay, which happened for one. Meredith is surprised and asks why one would like that. The family considers this a narrow-minded anti-gay attitude. Meredith makes it worse in the eyes of the family by adding that it is natural for parents to prefer their children to be "normal".
