Let's bring this thread, for once, back to reality...
If two dudes who are happily buggering one another, or two ladies happily slurping the juices, decide that they wish to be legally and morally entangled for all of time... Why, how, where, when...can it damage *anything*? People who love each other should be allowed to enter a legally binding agreement based on nothing more than their love, and it shouldn't matter whether they have tab A going into slot B or whatever. Any heterosexual couple is allowed, nay, *encouraged* to do this whenever they please. Why should a couple who has two tab A's or slots B be different? I dare anyone to provide a serious argument as to why this premise is wrong on any level.

Funny how when Coke want people to drink something brown and fizzy made of vegetable extracts and sugar which has no nutritional value and rots people's teeth, they spend millions on advertising.
But when teh gays wants to recruit more members (heh heh heh) all they have to do is tell school children that some men like it up the poop shoot. |

I know there are some traditional couples who feel their marriage is threatened by teh gheys...but that's just stupidity.
Love is love. Commitment is commitment.

Isn't it more that they think their vows to each other will be cheapened if 'just anyone' is allowed to go ahead and get married? That's the feeling I get when I read those sorts of discussions.

I think vows are cheapened more by serial marriage people: hop from one marriage or relationship to another, or by those who marry for money, or for a million other reasons that, to me, seem aside from what marriage should be about. It's my opinion that pretty much "just anyone" can get married anyway...who am I to limit it or to say Billy Joe and Bobbie Sue can get married because they're in love, even if he beats her or she cheats, but Billy Joe and Bobby Jack who are very committed and believe in a purpose in life can't? I know I'm talking to a very happily married person, so your opinion is valuable to this discussion. So many are not happy... ![]()

[.Quote How could anyone else's anything cheapen another couple's vows, if what you have is strong who cares what everyone else is doing?
That is the argument that annoys me the most. I have know so many people who jump right into a marriage and then are divorced 6 months later. But a pair of lovers who have been together faithfully for 10 years can't possible be married because they are both female. Oh no can't have that. I don't need some church's opinion to tell me what is right and wrong. I know what is right for me and I am sure they know what is right for them. Having left a marriage entered into full of love only to be handing more abuse than I plan on ever dealing with again, I know first hand that just being male and female isn't what makes a marriage. Love, caring, respect are the needed ingredients and they aren't only available to straight people. I was ashamed of the people in MO when they voted to discriminate against those who live and spend their money in the stores and pay the same taxes as the rest. As for them, Karma will come around.

No that's wrong. Because it is dishonesty, and a penis that I will never have.

I'm a product of my environment and upbringing, I suppose.
Rationally, I believe that two consenting adults should be able to do whatever as long as no permanent harm is done. The truth is, though, that female homosexuality doesn't bother me. But male homosexuality is ewwww. I don't know why.
