Gay relationships tend to have more abuse largely because of the economics of it.
Gay people have something like one tenth the options a normal person has.
I'd also argue economics is why all divorce rates are up.
Why would a woman stay in a bad marriage if she could get a job?

What if those cultural traditions are discriminating? Should we still not abandon them just to show respect for the ignorant people who lived thousands of years ago? Take a close look at number 5 and number 6 in my signature. |
5 is completely unrelated to my argument and what I'm saying is unrelated to 6 ...
As an analogy, Sports Utility Vehicles (SUVs) have been designed to go off road for generations; regardless of whether someone takes them off road, or whether the vehicle has something wrong with it that prevents it from going off road, it doesn't stop it from being a sports utility vehicle. A sports car was not designed to go off road, and you could probably not take it off road even if you tried really hard. Is it discriminatory to say that a sports car is not a sport utitlity vehicle even though they both have "sport" in the name and are used for recreation?
The government may have no right to provide preferential treatment to either kind of relationship, but that doesn't make a gay relationship the same as a marriage.

You have to understand that the whole point is to change the definition of marriage.
If there is a great store which excludes certain minorities, what would be the best course of action: To build a new store next to it where everyone can go (and let the two co-exist), or to change the guidelines of the old one?

Bahaha!
It seems the logical next question for Obama to have to answer is, if you are in favor of gay marriage again now, have you changed your mind on marriage not being a civil right? And if it is a civil right, how can it possibly be the prerogrative of the individual states to deny it? Luckily for him, the media is so heavily in the tank for him, and completely inept besides, that they will never force him to answer this question. Hopefully Gary Johnson will call him out on it, at least.

Here is a question for you, is it discriminatory to have separate restrooms for men and women? Is it discriminatory to have separate places of worship for Christians, Jewish people, and Muslims?
Marriage is a structured relationship that is enforced by society in general to create a solid family unity to have children with recognized paternity and strong parental involvement from the father. I don't see what homosexual relationships have to do with this.
You realistically don't care about marriage, you just are spoiled little kid deep down inside and are unwilling to let anyone have anything you don't have. I'm surprised you're not protesting Synagogues because you think it is discriminatory that only Jewish people can have a Bar Mitzvah, or Catholic curches because only Catholics can have communion.

Alright, where the fuck did that come from? "Spoiled little kid"??? Do you even listen to yourself or are you out of your mind?
Gay couples can raise children just as well as any other parents; adopting children is very common for your information.
I respected you as a poster during my lurker days, but no more.

"Just because you want to call your cat a dog doesn't make it a dog." What the hell is that supposed to mean? Tell me one single difference between marriage with different-sex partners and marriage with same-sex partners other than their biological differences. It is two people who love each other and who wants to be able to officially show it to others. I posted this on my wall earlier, but I guess it fits ferfectly here as well:
Sex differences are no different than skin-colour differences; They are entirely biological. Just because you are born gay you shouldn't be excluded from the happiness that marriage may bring. |
im guessing you also support polygammy.- people should be able to marry a several dozen other people, right?
im guessing you support marrying your brother, or sister, mom or dad too, or all of them at once, right?
if not, imagine how stupid you are going to look in 40 years.

That is completely unrelated. Marriage between two people of the same sex are already happening in a few developed countries (including here where I live).
America will follow, no matter how long it may take.

how so?
you, yourself just said you want to change the definition of marriage.
so why is okay and normal for 2 people of the same sex to marry, but not 3, 5 10 or 50 people of the same sex and different sex. why is it not okay for family members to marry each other?
you are dodging the question, because the same nonlogical argument you are applying to gay marriage can also be applied to other forms of marriage, which you are irronically against.
