“My best friend and I of eight years got married… we did this because we wanted to raise kids together, we wanted to live our lives by each other’s side,” Jay Guercio, 23, said in a TikTok about her “platonic marriage.” “We act as a married couple does, but we don’t have the romantic or physical stuff.”

The video racked up 4.8 million views, with more than 10,000 comments from followers wondering how the newlywed ladies make it work.

“Marriage is about so much more than the love you feel with someone,” Jay, 23, told The Post of her relationship with 28-year-old Krystle Guercio, née Purificato.

well, I don't automatically think two women living together are lesbians...more suspect with men but even then, I don't automatically assume anything....

marriage offers certain benefits, like if one works, they can get their spouse on their health care plan....

[alexander_busek]

But aren't they so steeped in the concept / ideal /social construct of marriage as defined by Western Civilization as to be "turned off" by the idea of "marrying" a mere "buddy?"

Analogy: As a kid (kids do lots of crazy stuff), I once added green food coloring to my scrambled eggs.

Although I knew that the scrambled eggs smelled and tasted just as good as ever - I got physically ill while trying to "down" them.

There's this phenomenon in the lesbian community called "bed death" where the physical stuff ends pretty quick.

So the only thing they're doing different from lesbians is skipping out on a short honeymoon period.

Marriage is the union of one man and one woman in wedlock. Anything else — two women, two men, three women-two men-one goat — is not a marriage. The Communist ‘RATS, Leftist media, and SCOTUS are wrong.

We had sex four times in the last 48 hours.

Can I legally adopt my dogs so they’re covered under himself’s health insurance?

It would sure be cheaper than their own.

[nickcarraway]

Let me guess, you read too much Dr. Seuss.

[nickcarraway]

I know they try to dispute lesbian bed death. I have no idea if it's true or not.

They also talk about Uhaul lesbians, where they move in together very quickly.

[nickcarraway]

Yes, but can your dogs adopt you?

You and nickcarraway? Was it phone sex? ;-)

[nickcarraway]

Hey, I was not there and know nothing about this. lol.

At this point I’m like who cares. Marry your own dog if that’s your chosen thing. Your choice and your consequences. Just don’t force or push that crap on the rest of us somewhat normal peeps trying to get by in this zoo of a life here on God’s creation that stupid humanity has corrupted.

They are young. A man in the picture changes everything

LESBIANS
It ain't like the movies

Tatoos. In the ‘60’s the only ones with tatoos were old Navy guys and it was an anchor, etc.

Well they ain’t lipstick lesbians that’s for sure. As per usual...it’s not like the movies. If there is no sex they are basically room mates.
