Are you For or Against Gay Marriage?
Are you for or against gay marriage? Why?
I'm fine with it. I've got no right to tell someone they can't marry anyone they want, it's their sexual orientation and I have to respect that. I don't care if the bible, or the law or whatnot defines marriage as the bond between a man and a woman, because due to our discovery that people have sexual orientations, whether you're heterosexual, bi-sexual, or homosexual, it probably should be changed to "the bond between two human beings." So, what are your views on gay marriage? |
Dude, I just don't care..I mean literally, don't care...
If two people love eachother, I won't judge them, as I have no right to be telling people what they should do with their lives. I mean, I'm not gay, and I don't understand it, but it doesn't bother me. So I just said "Undecided" |
Well...one of my best friends is gay so I must say I'm OK with the gay marriage.
|
for it theres nothing wrong with it people who say it's wrong are afraid people will think they're gay if they think gay marriage is ok and thats just dumb
|
I really see no problem with gay marriage, heck, it;s thier decission if they want to marry, then let them.
|
I'm for because it doesn't matter what sex you are either being male and female, or male and male or female and female. AS long as you love each other thats all that matters

well, i said undecided, cause gay marriage doesn't make any sense to me, but well, as the others have said already, it's their decision, if they want to, then let them! i don't have any right to interfere...so undecided is the one i checked...
|
Hmm, I don't take, it's not my problem. If two people want a gay marriage then so be it.
|
I'm personally for it, however "marriage" can only be performed in a Church, and Churches are private institutions funded by the community, so in a sense the Church does have some right to say who can and can't be married in their Church.
Although, Churches don't get taxed at all (not even land tax), and this is a political debate, so I say if the Church wants to have a say in politics, tax them! Let them pay the entrance fee like everyone else. Besides that... how could you be against it? There are people no only against gay marriage, but gay civil union too (ie, many of those same Churches and devout fundamentalists)! An event that takes place in a court of law, something meant to be fair and unbiased. Being a science guy myself, and an atheist, I don't understand (I mean, I literally can not comprehend) how someone could be against two people falling in love, no matter what the circumstances. |
I am for gay marriage. See, if two people of the same sex love each other they should get married. And they should be treated like if a man and woman get married. Like get all those benefits. But it is hard. I don't judge them at all.
|
I'm not against it, but I don't exactly support it, either.
|
That's just ok with me.
If they love eachother and want to marry i don't see the problem. |
For it. As long as it's between consenting adults then people are allowed to fall in love with and marry anyone they please as far as I'm concerned. Amen to what Richard Steel said; forbidding things within your own church is one thing (Although I agree that they should forfeit the free benefits they leech from society if they chose to do so) but interfering with the personal lives of people who don't care about getting the church's consent is just inexcusable. I find it rather ironic that people who claim to promote tolerance can be so biggotted, but then again; I've never really understood religion either.
|
I'm for gay marriages, as long as it's the government doing the marriages and not necessarily by the church. The church should be allowed to decide if they allow it or not by themselves.
I'm personally against it (greatly) since I'm one of those old, conservative Christian prick, but I like to keep government separate from religion. (as for the tolerance thing, I'm not going to even go to explain that in a forum XD; But let's say, we're tolerant by being intolerant, and that will not make sense to non-believers at all I'm sure =x) |
I'm mostly indifferent. I know of no one who's gay or anything, so I can't really make a proper judgement either way.
|
Gay ish affects me no more than the sight of my two male dogs trying to hump each other. What do I do about it? Nothing, just let them go on and be about their business. Why should I care if two random men on the other side of the planet are tongue wrestling, or sticking poles in each other's golf holes, or massaging each other's potato sacks? I'm not comfortable watching that sort of thing, but it's all good. I have the right to prefer melons, and I do, but I'm not going to tell someone else they can't enjoy bananas.
|
As Richard Steel said, marriage has always been sacrosanct and it's rather difficult to change that. If this weren't true, I would be all for gay marriage, but until then, I would just suggest such equality in legal terms, for example a civil union. Given the choice I would allow gay marriage, but ultimately I believe such a term is reserved as far as the individual community is concerned.
|
I'm fine with it, but I don't exactly support it either. Talk about copying Lily.
I don't even seem to care about what the church may state against it, but I believe homosexual legal union should be tolerated civilly. |
Well im fine with it... whatever they do in their personal lives is none of my business.
|
I'm not against gay marriage, but I don't know about gay couples adopting kids, because they would be confused if growing with two dads, and everyone would joke about them.
|
^ Not everyone would make fun of someone who had two dads or two moms. Plus, they would understand eventually why they do have that set of parents.
I am for gay marriage, I think you should be able to marry who you love and care for. I mean it's love, and there's nothing wrong with that. |
I voted against because I don't like what it's making marriage come to mean... feels like trivialfication... however I would in actuality advise it to a couple of the same sex for the sake of whatever benefits legal marriage brings to them. It's still a worthy goal for gay people, so I'm 'for' it.
|
I am in favor of allowing gay marriages. It disgusts me that people accuse it of diluting the concept of marriage as if it weren't already under attack by skyrocketing divorce rates and retarded celebrities doing it for fun.
|
For it. Seriously, the marriage of the same sex doesn't affect your marriage so why mess theirs up if they really feel strongly for each other. Besides they should bann divorce [Quote: Wanda] Once your in you can't get out. It may cause more death rates but hey.
|
Quote:
You shouldn't say it like divorce rates, retarded celebrities (I don't think they're necessarily retarded, they might be doing it for populairity & money), and gays getting married are the same issues, though. :P The two points you mentioned are scorned because of infidelity & unhappiness, but that's totally not what anti gay marriage is about. |
