Same sex marriage

[Mars_ax]

A "marriage" is a union between the 2 genders, that usually produces children, and/or a family. It's been that way for 1000's of years, and I see no need to make some special legal provision for those who choose a homosexual lifestyle.

Sure there's bad "straight" parents, but i've gotta believe that there's no replacement for being raised by a man and a woman in a functioning family unit. A legally married mother and father with children is the basis of human society, there's no substitute that matches that combination, and it's the way it's meant to be.

The way it's meant to be according to whom?

Marriage is between people that love and that is all. What does it matter to you if others of the same gender marry? I don't get it really.

Unless the guy is kissing you and saying "marry me or I will bugger you to death", then it shouldn't really matter.

All it is is a combining of accounts and a trust of loyalty. Why do you care so much?

Do you really think that gay people don't have the same feelings that straight people do? In terms of reliability, morality etc?

I was the child of a terrible marriage and a quick divorce and a deprived upbringing. It is hardly an ideal. Two loving fathers would have been much better.

According to me, it's simply my opinion. If you're looking for a debate, you won't find one here, at least not with me. Why did I post the thread? To say what I thought, and hear the opinions of others.

Have a great day Miles.

Bit weird. You started the thread.

All the best too.

But you started this weirdness.

Yes miles, i'm really strange, I believe i'd rather have a tooth pulled without novocain than trying to debate/discuss fag marriage or any endemic political, or social issue in America with you.
