…but doesn’t think gay couples should be allowed to marry, adopt, or have access to IVF.
And she sees no disconnect.
People shit me. Honestly.
PS. I still have the plague. Snot is never ending, the head throbs, the brain malfunctions, and now the throat is threatening to go on strike too. Wish me luck for the de-cluttering mission tomorrow.
PPS. Thanks everyone for the good anniversary vibes. I think I picked the best man ever, and I’m still thrilled that he picked me.

How can she not see how wrong she is? Equal rights means equal rights for everyone and that includes marriage. Everyone deserves the right to be happy!!! Marriage is a piece of paper that allows hospital visits, adoption, and equal rights. I can’t understand why people have such a problem with this.
I’ll step down from my soup box now.
Hope you are feeling better. And that your anniversary was a hit.
Best,
Devon

Happy Anniversary! It is a shame that not everyone can enjoy the security and stability that marriage brings. Obviously you found the right person – I did too and it seems cruel to me that people are discriminated against just because the person they found happens to be the same sex. People shit me too.

Maybe your equal rights acquaintance is just worried that gay marriage will raise the bar too high in the wedding style stakes… but seriously, I and my two brothers, as well as my best mate Evan, are all living proof that being raised by gay parents will not turn a person into a gun-toting, ill-informed, under educated, drug taking sociopathic facist… oh no, it takes a good Christian family like the Bush clan of Texas for that. The sad thing about the so called equal Rights suporter is that their opinion is evidence that they are not interested in equal rights, but are in fact little more than a bigot, hiding behind a respectable veneer of social resposibility and choosing causes that agree with their obviously narrow minded view of the world. I mean how many people would talk to them if they were honest at social gatherings and said “Hi there, I am an intolerant bigot who believes that by right of my sexual preference, I am a better person than a large percentage of the population” – you know, I might respect them for their courage if they did that, but bigotry is by nature a form of cowardice.

Oh oh – introduce her to me. I’d like her to say that to my face…. I find most people have to re-evaluate their positions on stuff like that when they actually meet someone who’s gay. Or find out one of their family members are gay.
