Change takes time. But I agree that gay marriage will eventually be legal in all US states and forward-thinking countries. Because homosexuality isn’t going to go away.
Why are heterosexuals granted the “privilege” of a government-sanctioned piece of paper on the second, third, fourth, fifth . . . marriage while a committed gay couple can be denied for the first union? Which example is more a travesty of the institution of marriage?

They won’t grant me a second, they say I have to end the first one before the second is valid.

Give it time. The arguments have already been made.

Because of religion and bigotry though of course those arguing that won’t acknowledge it. They will come up with their “other” reasons and attempt to say that is why, but they know deep down they are full of shit. They just won’t acknowledge that a super old book is where they are getting their “original” ideas. Ironically an old book that they ignore the teachings on of most stuff anyways or go counter to that. Or you know how bad it would be if “everyone” was gay…as if gay marriage might convert these guys arguing against it? I guess I’m a little more confident in my heterosexuality than the let’s talk about dicks and rectums groups.
Those arguments get shot down by all the heterosexual couples who can’t reproduce. They get shot down by all the older people who will marry with no way of having a baby. They are very weak arguments, and most of the people using them understand it, but they won’t stop. Because deep down they need to believe they are correct and they need to keep fighting a fight they started long ago. They can’t acknowledge it doesn’t harm them. They have built far too much up in saying it will to turn back now.
It will be legal though because those old ways of doing things don’t make sense anymore just like we made changes with civil rights, women’s suffrage, etc. Changes takes time, but this battle is already over. And you can see most Republicans shying away from what they see is already a done deal. Even the dumbasses of Mississippi would eventually change it on a state level and that is from a state that rails against the federal government while most of it’s inhabitants live off of it.

Talk about an eye for an eye. I can’t say that I disagree.

What gave it away? The law degree or career as a politician?

Usmc tell me that is actually an onion article. If I was a judge half the time i would put people in jail for being such a threat to society.
If a female can not use the same restroom as other females why can’t males not use the same restroom as a female?
Edit:
Female: “I don’t want to use the same restroom as females.”
“Something must be done!”
Males: “I don’t want to use the same restroom as that female.”
“Heretics!”
If gender if socially constructed, why not just put a sign on the girl’s room that says “bio-females?” And the understanding would be that it is a gender-neutral bio-female restroom.

I agree, I am confused why boys and girls have different locker rooms. I mean, anyone who finds it odd that straight kids might feel uncomfortable changing, using the bathroom, or showering next to each other is just immature about their sexuality. Do they think so much of themselves that they just assume someone of the opposite sex will can’t control themselves and just start humping someone ?!
