Gay Marriage Discussion

Lol, of course not. We all pledged to be abstinent in freshmen health class. There were 2 or 3 seniors in the class and they were just like, “Lol, you fools don’t even know.”

10 seconds after the pledge if the teacher asked “who wants to fuck me” a line would have formed.

We had that too. My youth was full of disingenuous pledges, like taking the abstinence pledge for extra credit in health class and pledging not to use drugs, alcohol or tobacco to play sports and competitive spelling and mathematics.

I even disingenuously accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior when I was 15 in some guitar-strumming pastor’s basement because I thought it would get me into the pants of my red-headed neighbor.

Teenage me was so full of shit!

Side-story. The red-head fell for a dreamy-looking heroin addict. Talk about an ego blow for me at the time, losing the girl to a junkie. She even married him, tried to pray away the addiction (didn’t work, wrong prayers maybe?), and divorced him a few years later.

Now she’s big into cats and prescription pills. Boy did I dodge a bullet!

Are you guys really feeding a troll that thinks sex should only be for making babies in 2017? C’MONNNNNNN GUYS

Cmon fury, your house is waaaay too much like glass to throw that stone.

Hey man. I feed trolls, but not these kinda trolls. You can’t fight that level of derp.

Plus if you try trolling him back, he’s never going to actually realize he’s being trolled. Too much derp.

Nah, I probably shouldn’t of engaged, but I was killing some time and the flaws were too easy to pick apart.

I also tied the discussion into my morning podcast, so I feel like I should get extra brownie points.

Well shit. Look at you being all “use every part of the animal” and whatnot.

I take it back. Carry on the feeding.

Ok.

Seems relevant.

Deep, really? Beg your pardon I’m not blissfully ignorant.
And I’m not trying to troll (see discord to elicit negative emotions),

If you can’t tolerate someone who is outside the little group commenting, just post to the effect of “no dissenting opinions allowed.”
Otherwise this is public domain, and per forum rules is for discussing and defending the impolite topics like this one,

I somehow sense you’re in my kids’ generation (millennial) cause there’s widespread disdain by them for traditional family values among other things.

Just wanted to respond to the derp insult. Yet another inaccurate post about who you think I am,

Don’t blame your minority views on age. My parents are both in their late 60’s and aren’t obsessed with controlling other people’s genitals.

Oh wait family values. That sounds much better than emperor of genital control.

Of course your dissenting opinion is allowed, and of course my dissenting opinion about your dissenting opinion is allowed, yes?

Sure am. Also, the disdain you see with my generation can, in part, to watching your generation destroy the global economy and don’t believe gay people should have equal rights under the law.

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.

***Replying on phone and [quote] function not working:

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:

  1. Get a job
  2. Show up as scheduled
  3. Do assigned tasks
  4. Receive pay
  5. Distribute funds to creditors, buy groceries, etc.
  6. 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.

Shouldn’t HAVE, people. It’s shouldn’t HAVE!

First, it’s a tremendous achievement that you can un-ironically say this in the same post you complain about kids today needing safe spaces, although it’s pretty much par for the course; anecdotal experience tells me that 99% of the time someone complaining about the damn kids needing their safe spaces is simultaneously upset that they have to see/hear/listen to (insert triggering thing here). People that say things like “Fine, they can be gay, but do they have to call it marriage?” are basically wishing to live in a world where they can pretend that gay people don’t exist…your own safe space, if you will.

Anyways, maybe homosexuals wouldn’t be so “in your face” about rights and equality if:

a) they hadn’t been denied rights and equality for so long

b) they didn;t still see nations around the world where it’s illegal to be gay

c) most importantly, they didn’t STILL see states pushing back against gay marriage. There have been something like 16 bills introduced this year by state legislatures that push back against gay marriage in some form; after the SC ruling, the “traditional family values” people have pivoted from fighting to keep gay marriage illegal to merely giving public employees the right to refuse to grant a marriage license to gay people (which could functionally prevent a gay couple from getting married if they live in the wrong area and most of the local yokels aren’t down with the whole gay thing).

Anyways, my point is, they’re so loud and in your face about it because they still know that there is pushback against their existence, let alone their rights, every day. Homosexuals won their right to get married after a long struggle; there were no guns, no military conquest, but they had to fight for it. I’ve always found this curious, how one can reconcile the idea that gay people are whiney pansies who need safe spaces with the fact that they fought and won a long-denied civil right through public protest. If they needed safe spaces, wouldn’t they have stayed at home, curled in the fetal position, afraid to go outdoors lest someone call them a fag?

On a separate issue:

Most people that talk this way are bitching more about their caricature of millennials than what actual millennials are like. As part of the millennial generation, I can attest that most of my friends follow steps 1-5 exactly as suggested in your Five-Point Life Manifesto above.

I always type shouldn’t of every damn time, lol…

Personally, I think the government should treat the situation for what it really is, a contract between two consenting adults. They (the Fed or individual States) shouldn’t be involved in “marriage” at all.

I find this ironic because you said if your employer supported gay rights you would walk out. Maybe try following your own rules?
