It is particularly important for those engaged to be married to live chastity in continence. They should reserve for marriage the expressions of affection that belong to married love..Offenses against chastity include lust, masturbation, fornication, pornography, prostitution, rape, and, of course, active homosexuality..extracted from The Catechism of the Catholic Church, second edition, English translation 19942359 Homosexual persons are called to chastity.

How can a child of a Lutheran and Catholic parent be baptised to make both parents happy?
A person can only be baptized once so baptizing in both churches would be redundant. Generally, when a non-Catholic marries a Catholic they are required to affirm that any children must be raised as Catholics before the Church will allow them to marry. Therefore, if they were married in a Catholic church the children should be baptized in a Catholic church. If the parents were not married in a Catholic church, then they have another problem. They need to regularize their marriage to be in full communion with the Catholic Church. They must arrange to have their marriage blessed by the Catholic Church.
