The three FAILED Promises of Gay Marriage
Ruth Institute ^ | July 27, 2026 | Ruth Institute

Posted on 08/14/2026 4:15:26 AM PDT by fwdude

Before gay marriage was legalized, its supporters made three specific promises.

Every single one of them has failed.

Dr. Jennifer Roback Morse walks through the actual data — Gallup polls, the UCLA Williams Institute study, and a 2025 systematic review of 123 studies across 31 countries — to show what really happened after decades of pro-gay advocacy and the legalization of same-sex marriage.

As I said back in the 70’s, the three steps were simple. Tolerance: We just want to left alone to live our lives jn peace.

Acceptance: You have to accept our lifestyle as just another form of normal.

Participation: You will bake our cakes, teach your children our ways and gives us special privileges and protection.

They’ve gotten them all. The only thing left is a demand that everyone join in the fun. If you can’t prove you actively participate in LGBT sexual activities, you can’t function in society. Not sure they can get this one, but I’m sure they are trying. The butchering of children in the name of the trans agenda is pretty damn close. There are really scaring essays that have been written by Gay activist that talk about a permanent breeder class whose only purpose is to create more children for the gay community to prey on.

Had a good friend who was homosexual. I asked him once about gay marriage. He said most gay men had no interest in it. He said it is totally be driven by a few activists and it has nothing to do with marriage.

Interestingly, he was married for about four years and fathered a normal heterosexual son whose is happily married with two kids. His wife and he remained friends after their divorce. She remarried another woman when it became legal and he just lived the life until his death at 68.

And for some reason, it didn’t increase the birthrate.

the legalization of same-sex marriage.

One of the worst decisions in the history of the Supreme Court.

This video answers the Protestants questions on why the RCC doesn’t allow their priests to marry.

I watched the video and didn't hear anything in the video about less chance of damaging the car if there's no wife backing it out of the driveway. What did she say in the video about priests shouldn't marry?

Reminds me of an old joke about an old Army sergeant that had decided to retire because of gays in the military. When asked why, he said, "When I first joined, homosexual activity wasn't allowed. Then after a while, we were told we had to tolerate it. Then they went to affirming it. I'm getting out now before they make it mandatory!"

I’m old enough to remember when homosexuals said they just wanted to be left alone to live their lives.

They lied.

That's what they said to normal people, but not what they said amongst themselves.

America was a better place when sodomy was illegal.

Yes, exactly.

It followed 3 others that were all just a pernicious:
Romer v. Evans (1996): Invalidated a Colorado constitutional amendment that prevented protected-status adoption for homosexual persons.
Lawrence v. Texas (2003): Struck down state sodomy laws, decriminalizing same-sex intimate relationships nationwide.
United States v. Windsor (2013): Struck down Section 3 of the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA), which had denied federal recognition of same-sex marriages.

I can remember how viciously aggressive and vindictive the Gaystapo became overnight after Obergefell came out. It was like the Night of the Long Knives.

Rejected by 31 states. Rammed down by elites. Scalia was right.

<>How is the gay agenda forced upon us?<>

I looked and waited for an Anthony Kennedy interview after he retired.

Sure enough, on C-Span IIRC, he said he thought children with same sex parents deserved to have married mommies or daddies.

A real constitutional scholar eh?

Judicial legislating rarely works out well.

HOMOSEXUAL, because there’s nothing GAY about it.

“ The last year of his life, George Michael slept with 500 men…while married to his husband!?!”

I seriously doubt there was much sleeping involved.

Anthony Kennedy ... said he thought children with same sex parents deserved to have married mommies or daddies.

He also, unwittingly, compared the "gay marriage" advocates to the Nazis imposing their will on the government.

Justice Anthony Kennedy dismissed conscientious objectors to Obergefell, such as Kim Davis, by pointing out that very few Christian judges resigned when the Nazis imposed the Nuremberg Laws on Germany. Leaving aside how offensive it is to compare gay marriage supporters to Nazis, Justice Kennedy’s statements point to a troubling lack of coherence in the man’s thinking.

Assuming these studies are conducted property and from legitimate sources, these conclusions are valuable information for families struggling with today’s impressionable youths.

Oh, yeah, I’d forgotten about those.

I wouldn’t make homosexuality a crime, but I won’t pretend that it’s normal.
