quote:That's simply nuts. Do you really think that straight people will suddenly stop getting married and having children simply because gay people could get married? Really? Uh, yeah, that's why such a thing has NOT happened anywhere where gay folks can marry. But hey, why let reality interfere
Logical,
Gay people can live together just like married people. In the 80's when i lived in Huntsville, in the apartment complex i lived in, there were three gay couples in the two buildings, eight units in each.
Now since gay people can live together just like anyone else, please pray tell me the rationale for them getting married.
Men and women get married to declare their allegiance to each other till death they do part, forsaking all others, then they begin building a life together, which includes in most cases the spawning of children and the establishment of a family environment.
The gay couple i saw in the 80's were neither dedicated to each other for life nor were they monogomous. As i have stated before, the average gay male by the near end of life has had 100's of different lovers. This does not fit the profile of marriage.
