He’s actually wrong on that as every single age group that Gallup has asked supports gay marriage including 65 and over with 53% approving.
No matter how you shake it he’s in the minority. Just going to have to accept that most people aren’t trying to control other people’s sex lives. He probably needs to take the Mrs out. Perhaps if he was getting more action he wouldn’t think about other people’s action so much.

Supports or approved on that poll? Just curious.
And no, not trying to control what 2 adults do sexually. However, I definitely don’t like the gay “marriage” stuff, or hearing/seeing the dang media coverage of the issues.
And I detest seeing a gay couple behaving in a manner that clearly indicates they’re a couple. But as for that, I detest to people of the opposite sex behaving inappropriately. It lacks class in both cases.
Taking my missus out has no bearing on the “action,” only my conduct. After being together 31 years, married. 28, all that stuff has been worked out long ago. I know the ONE equation that’s most important:
Happy Wife = Happy Life
And I’m quite good at balancing equations!
But back to the issue. It’d be a helluva lot easier for me to handle if there wasn’t so much “in your face” stuff about it. It’s like the crowd is AKWAYS screaming about rights and equality, even after the damnable bill passed. Bunch of frickin whiney asses, which is what led into the Millenual comment.
I realize why many of that generation don’t share my values - school debt, seeing parents retirement savings vanish and then suffering as a result etc. But dammit, there is equal opportunity in this country, so:
- Get a job
- Show up as scheduled
- Do assigned tasks
- Receive pay
- Distribute funds to creditors, buy groceries, etc.
- Shut TF up
Repeat 2-4 for life
I hear campuses now have “safe spaces” for students who are having difficulty dealing. I’d just tell them, “Suck it up buttercup” and suggest they grow a pair.
You must be able to see how a guy at age 47, been to war, retired military, isn’t cool with much of the stuff going on with the younguns nowadays? That includes the whole spectrum of sexual issues from single mothers to LBGT crowd.
An aside: The VA stopped paying for gender surgeries. I am astounded they did to begin with. If a soldier had indicated anything close to that issue back in the day, there would’ve been some butt whoopin’ dealt out, and decisively. Not to mmention a dishonorable discharge, which as I see should still be the result. I’d not want someone covering me who has a mental disorder (gender dysphoria). And I sure as hell don’t want my tax dollars used to pay for something that contradicts my conscience. If they are trans, any surgeries should be on their dime. That money could be much better used on equipment, training, and a pay increase for the bation’s finest.
K tangent ends here.
