Heather's question yesterday on why do adoptees search:

Made me think of another question.
Why is it acceptable for non-adopted people to spend money on genealogy searches, spend countless hours online and at archives pouring over old public records, and travel far distances to visit the graves or villages of relatives they've never met - but when adoptees do it, it's questioned?
Where does that double standard come from?
