I worked with a gay guy that asked me if I thought gays should be able to marry. I told him that marriage is a religious institution and, while if gays had some sort of registration so they could have the same tax laws, etc. apply to them, that’s a gov’t issue, but the gov’t has no right to force acceptance of gay marriage on everyone because most religions do not believe in it.
He accepted that answer.
Getting jollies doesn’t mean being gay in the original sense. A lot of homos are pretty crabby and gloomy.
A valid argument but one that the media never even entertained, the idea of a legal relationship with it’s own definition and name.
Now we will have to create a new word for “marriage”, when we are talking about real marriage, so that the normal people can still talk daily about weddings and marriages without having to wade through clarifications and the same questions over and over.
