In Netherlands, gay marriage becomes routine By Keith B. Richburg, Washington Post, 10/4/2003

AMSTERDAM -- Dolf Pasker and Gert Kasteel are like any other married couple two years on, settling into the mundane routine of daily life together. They finish each other's sentences. They laugh at each other's jokes. When one goes to make the coffee, the other playfully teases about whose job it is to work in the kitchen. The only thing that makes their marriage unusual is they are both men. (excerpted)

How do they know that horse was raped?

Maybe the horse was dressed provocatively.
Maybe the horse was some kind of slut.
Maybe the horse wanted it.

This is simply a case of he said, it said.

But, but, what if they are truly, and, I mean truly in love?

Hey, the neocommunist America-haters are backing all sorts of other freaks and weirdos. And, there are some really, really ugly woman who probably can't do much better than a collie.

There was a young lady from Exeter
And all the young men threw their sex at her
Just to be rude
She lay in the nude
While her parrot, a pervert, took pecks at her.

This is just another example of the Religious Right trying to impose it's veiws on the rest of us. Some of us are born white, some of us are born black. Some of us are born gay, some of us are born straight. Some of us are born predisposed to sex with humans while others are predisposed to sex with animals. I am tired of all the homophobes and animalphobes trying to change us! Ok, I'm done ranting. Me and my sister are going back to bed now.
/sarcasm off

Here's a wake-up call. 22 States in the good old USA have no laws against bestiality. I'll bet most folks didn't know that.

As long as they're not discriminating against homobestiality, I got no problem with it.

You mean they are going to impose their morality on others?

At first I thought it said Neverland may ban bestiality.
