How can being true to yourself ruin your life? Let me tell you, I know how hard it is to always be pretending. And have you read this whole thread? Because it would seem that a good many people think there is nothing wrong with homosexuality. (I'm not trying to be rude or insulting to your views or anything - sorry if it sounds that way.)
Li sempre essera le domande, non importa cio che la lingua.
ok, i don't want to be rude, just straight forward. you are an ignorant blind ass. marriage is a relationship in which two people have pledged themselves to each other. it does not say you have to be a man or a woman. it's is love that binds two people together, not a penis & vagina.
1. the world is already over populated. we don't need more people is it. people should not be degraded because they can't have children. they have feelings just like every other person. they have similar desires. more people in the world is not what we need. so who cares if you can make babies or not. as long as you & your PARTNER are happy, all is well.
2. lesbianism is natural. it was discovered that people who are gay use a different part of their brain. so it is natural for them. so what if they need an attachment. some people get pleasure in making their other half happy. and besides unlike men, who would get drained the women could take turns, so each would be satisfied.
3. consummation? some straight people are not even FULFILLED when having sex. like i said before, some people get pleasure from making the other one happy. and because you & i are not lesbians we don't know exactly all the ways they can pleasure each other. but there is probably more than one way.
4. can you define natural? because to me natural means what feels best to that individual. an to start a family, the couple could adopt. that takes care of the family idea. besides some people are just not fit to take care of children, & some don't like children. divorces should most defiantly be allowed. wake up honey, people cheat. people fall out of love. people are forced to marry some one they don't love. people beat each other. should someone really have to stay with someone like that, who has hurt them? no, circumstances change.
5. gay marriage is not illegal in every state. it does not say "hey lets go mess up the government" duh! it says "i don't care what other people say, i love you & that's all that matters to me". you said the U.S. stands for "for the people, by the people" well then if the people want gay marriage, then they should be allowed. gay marriage does not cause rape, murder thefts and cornucopias of other crimes. & the only time it does is when some stupid dumb ass is being a unopened viewer, does this happen. do you want to know why? BECAUSE THEY DON"T BELIEVE IN GAY RIGHTS & THEY MAKE THE GAYS PAY FOR BEING IN LOVE! don't believe me, go watch Borat, or Broke Back Mountain. see how the west treats gays.
Are you saying that they are ruining their own lives? Because they're not. They would ruin their lives if they pretended to be straight for the benefit of society.

i don't like rosalyn points or veiws and i don't agree with homsexuality but i have many friends who are bi i don't care cuz it's not my life there ruineing i don't sarcasim was ever played into this...and i diagree entirley about what she is saying!!!
I don't think criticizing lesbian and homosexuals is very nice or fair. Every one is entittled to their opinion,yes, but every one is also entittled to their own choices and way they want to live their life. If your reason is that "God said..." well... God would love anyone nomater waht sex, choice, or orientation they are. That is all. SANTI.
the general rule of law on this site is treat everyone the same regardless of batshit insane views. If you want to reason with them, in a fair balanced manner, lacking in dergatory comments and inanity then argue with thme. But if you can't treat their views fairly... don't waste your time and energy lampooning them. It acomplishes nothing
I am sorry for the mistake, but those with views like Rosalyn make me incredibly angry.
I am fortunate to have seen first hand the beautiful love between man and man, and woman and woman. I know of gay/lesbian couples that have practiced abstinence, wanting to wait for marriage for YEARS! The fact is, some of the points that Roslyn brings up are so ridiculous (Marriage should not be allowed after menopause??? Men never experience that, so THEY would be allowed to keep getting married to younger women, but those past birthing periods must die alone???) that I feel I cannot take her seriously. Also, homosexuals have been around AS LONG AS heterosexuals. They are perfectly natural. If you wanna go the God route, why would he create them if they weren't meant to be?
They should be given to their parents. Every child must be with their parents.
Right. We should give all of the kids in foster care back to their parents despite their circumstances. Rosalyn, my family is a foster care provider in our city, and there is no way I would give any of those kids back to their parents. I highly doubt (although I may be wrong) that you have ever seen an infant addicted to drugs, an emaciated toddler whose mom wouldn't feed him.
These kids should not just go back to their parents. It would be better to have them adopted by a couple, whether gay or straight, who can give them love and care rather than abuse. We have adopted one little girl into a lesbian household, and her moms love her. It is a much batter life than she had before.

Oh, and incidentally marriage itself (not to mention "God") is just about the most "unnatural" thing in the world. Doin' it because you're horny seems to feel pretty natural though.
what is wrong with you! you become married because you love each other, and it has nothing to do with the government. you arnt always right. if you are, tell me what day my birthday is! really there is something wrong with you
Everyone has a right to express themselves, but if you have something rude to say, shut your trap!
I'm only 15 so you may not think I know a lot about gay marriage, but I have many gay and lesbian friends and even relatives. Just because they cannot have children doesn't mean that they don't need companionship every day. Honestly I'm hoping that this whole speech you've given is a joke because I don't see how anybody could possibly reason the way that you do.
Gay marriage wouldn't ruin America. First of all, there are too mant people against it to even make a difference. They can go on minding their own buisiness. Why do they even have to pay attention to two men or two women together? You don't look at a man and a woman walking together down the street and think "oh, that's right. we should all be like that" because it is so normal. But if you see two women, or men, it's not something you normally see, but is that really going to ruin your day? No. I don't think so. You're not gonna go home and take a shower with the toater, because I'm sure you'd be against that too. I understand your oppinions, and they make sense. The human mind is an interesting thing.
But yes, women can't have intercourse, but you don't need that to be in love. And if they want a child, they can adopt one. Which is a good thing as well. There may be reasons why you don't want it, but I don't think they are going to stop a woman from loving a woman, or a man, a man. I don't think there is anything we can do about it. Unless you want the world to turn into a dictatorship, if it isnt all ready doing so.
your birth is a mistake you'll spend your whole life trying to correct.
Okay, I am sure this was mentioned already. Who cares.
Thats is just WHO CARES!!! It's love if they are in love let them get married. Why does the USA have to go by a book? Not everyone wants to be controlled by a book.
Mods: I know I'm not supposed to double post, but there were too many that needed responding.
Littleninja: 1. As has been covered several times, the people voted against gay marriage. 2. Why should I keep opinions like this to myself? I’m over 18; I have been granted my full constitutional rights which guarantee me the right to say what I want. 3. When didn’t I say I was happy? I’m perfectly happy. My life is amazing right now, and I don’t need to be “more openminded” to be happy. Maybe you should be more openminded that other opinions exist and could potentially be right even though you disagree with them. 4. If you had posted a debate to my points, then I could say the same thing to you: it’s all opinion. It’s all opinion that homosexuals would be happily married for longer than straight couples, for example. 5. Care to explain how homosexual marriage is not a bad thing? I’m willing to listen if you care to explain without insulting—or trying to insult—my personal life, something which you know nothing about.
Stompy: 1. Is marriage, or is marriage not “meant to bind two people’s souls together?” You don’t seem to know. However, it is meant as a traditional union to procreate and populate the planet, if you wish to go the religious route. 2. Scientists aren’t God, but they are quite good at determining what is natural and is not, and creating things to be “natural.” 3. Then those spouses should not have gotten married without testing their partner out first. And if something is wrong, they can always go to a doctor or a couple’s counselor. 4. Feminism has nothing to do with the ruining of the sanctity of marriage. It’s people who rush into marriage just for the sex—but not the children—and who do not understand what marriage is about that ruin the sanctity of marriage. Also ruining it are the people who marry for “love,” when in reality, they are marrying for lust since they do not understand the concept behind love. 5. As for wanting to be married: they’re trying to fit something unnatural into something natural. A circle peg cannot fit into a square hole; homosexuality cannot fit into marriage. 6. Of course the U.S. is not crime free. Humans are quite prone to violence and conflict—just look at this thread for an example! However, by providing something for the minority, it creates tensions among the majority, which will lead to an explosion of emotion and more crime. It’s a law of human behavior and physics: For every action, there must be an opposite and equal reaction. It’s not hard for a peaceful event to turn violent. History is full of examples of that.
Mzbasketballstar 1. If they cannot naturally procreate, then they are leeching off of society’s benefits. People hate it when people don’t work and leech off of others’ tax dollars, so why is this any different? Love should really be taken out of the marriage equation because it seems to be more detrimental to our society than helpful. If it weren’t for “love,” we wouldn’t have divorce.
Ashleecuh: 1. The U.S. Government cannot accept homosexuality because, as the votes have shown, it is not what the people want. And I’m not looking for a reason as to why America is corrupted; there is no particular one, but many intertwined. One individual cannot corrupt an entire country—he needs others to agree in order to do so. 2. I’d say to leave the Christian God out of it, but if you want to go that way, explain why the Bible condemns homosexuality, why it discusses consummation of marriage, and why it tells people to “be fruitful and multiply.” How can two people of the same sex “be fruitful and multiply?” How can they consummate a marriage? 3. We all judge people we do not know. Even you. It’s what humans do.
Craigums: 1. Just read the other points where the people do not want gay marriage. And just because someone disagrees with gay marriage does not automatically make them “right wing.” 2. When people decide for themselves, they ruin their own lives. It’s so much better (and easier) for someone with knowledge to decide for those whose own intelligences are limited. 3. Then how come rape seems to be everywhere? How come downloading illegally is up? Gay marriage is being fought for—and crime is currently increasing. Both have a commonality as well—the free flow of information. If information was restricted, this world would be a better place.
Beirbre: I’m not joking.
Meghanlyn: 1. People don’t want gay marriage. 2. People of the same sex would be leeching off of society without giving something in return. That’s how it’d be bothering us.
