If heterosexual couples do not have to prove that they are engaged in regular coed wrestling in order to obtain health insurance, social security, etc., why do you think homosexual couples should have a similar burden?
This is about homosexuals claiming rights, privileges or minority status that they currently do not have and is based on a behavior.
If you want too claim the status, then you must meet the definitions.
So the question remains how do you verifiably prove your claimed status?
I hate the people that park in the handicapped areas with their
little wheelchair sign in their window, then jump out of their
car and run into the store.
I hate the young people that get married to older folk, just to grab
their money when the old spouse dies.
I hate the liars that claim they have no deficiency when getting
a driver's license, then drive through stop signs and traffic
signals because they don't manage well with the medications
they're taking.
I hate those that claim to demand Constitutional rights for all,
then argue in prejudice manners.
I hate those that preach honesty, then declare more tax-deductible
donations for one year, than they've made in their entire life.
I hate those that get married they say they want love, then get
divorced because their partner is unable to have sex.
The list is endless, isn't it? And so is the list of people that would
use fraudulent means to get what they want out of life. We can't
stop those that are willing to steal from life, but we can guarantee
those that are willing to comply to a contract, the rights effected
to all that have complied to that same contract.
In this topic, the contract is "marriage". All that comply to it's
contract; all that are willing to vow to remain together as a couple,
deserve the same treatment under law.
