Currently, this is the topic du jour here in Ireland. So, I thought I'd poll the people of AUKN to see where you all stand on the issue! Please do explain your choice, too! :]
Geez! That's short-sighted... I mean, I like to see hot lesbians so I won't question your tastes.Aion said:The only time I can see myself changing my view on this is if we're talking about REALLY hot lesbians getting married.

True, and I'm not saying christians can't have their own way. But can't everyone else have thier own way too?dan137 said:Chaz said:We've had gay stuff around for a while now, so why can't the ordinary face facts and see something that isn't 'a bland shade of gray'? (A.k.a. the norm.)
The main reason, IMO, why the general population can't see gay marrigae as a normal thing is because as a soceity, we've been continuously pounded by the religious concept that being gay is something bad. Unlike divorce which was mentioned above, this isn't something that is condoned by the religions, and the general population (even if they arn't observant) tend to follow the feelings of their religion.

Imagine you're a 13 year old boy in an orphanage. Next, imagine 2 REALLY hot lesbians adopting you. Then, after you move in with them, imagine all the fun you could have with a video camera...
You see? REALLY hot lesbians getting married and adopting children would be a wonderful thing. The government would need to set up a special panel of judges who allowed only the REALLY hot ones, but it would be worth it in the long run.
Also, no bullying would occur if you were adopted by REALLY hot lesbians - You'd have everyone trying to be your friend in order to gain access to the house.
as long as they don't bother me, i couldn't give a monkeys if they get married or not to be honest
Aion said:Question: CG, are you gay?
I'm honestly not trying to be offensive: I guessed you were either homosexual or bisexual a while back. Every homosexual anime forum person I've ran into seems to type excessively and come across a little feminine in their posting style. You creating a thread that's connected to homosexuality has made me curious enough to want to know the truth.
My reasoning for this is my firm belief that the male exit hole should remain an exit hole.

Though like sy, ive never seen the big deal in getting married
However, I do not like the idea of homesexuals getting married so they can adopt children. Society (as PC as we try to be) is not ready for kids with gay parents, and all it will lead to is an incredibly amount of hardship for that child through his childhood (due to bullying/teasing etc). Marriage is fine by me, but marriage with kids is a whole other story
Gacha said:If children are getting bullied becuase there loving family is a little diffrent from the conventinal then it's up to society as a while to teach them other wise.
Got to remember kids once got bullied for there parents splitting up(now a days it's the normal).
Kurogane said:Also, two dudes shacking up and copulating like neutered dogs isn't the same as the two traditional marriage candidates, so why should their marriage be treated the same?
Rui said:I don't really understand say, gay Catholics, wanting a Catholic wedding. That just seems odd to me as the church itself pretty much officially hates them. I couldn't follow a religion which looked down on me (and many do, as I was been born female). It seems there are less archaic options around for being allowed to have your faith and freedom too without the guilt complex.

So, do you think that straight couples who use contraception, heterosexual couples who cannot conceive because of medical reasons, older couples no longer able to conceive and couples who take measures to stop conception (for example, a male vasectomy) and thus "copulate like neutered dogs" should be denied marriage too?
