Last Sunday's edition of The New York Times contained a startling admission. Among 5,400 homosexual couples who have "married" in Massachusetts since last May, nearly two-thirds were pairs of women. A lesbian is about four times as likely to opt for same-sex "marriage" as a homosexual man. [It's] the same psychological divide familiar to any young man on the make in the heterosexual world: Darn it, the women are all looking for that ring. This wasn't supposed to be.

I can't wait until the first bigamy trial. "I wasn't serious about it. We were just making a statement."
What do you get if a Homosexual man marrys a Lesbian woman?
Homosexual Agenda Ping.
I think it's time to trot out my very revealing quotes, from noteable and quotable homosexual spokespersons, citing the REAL reasons they want "marriage". (It is NOT because they want to act like a regular Mr. and Mrs!!)
If you are newish to this pinglist, please take the time to read these quotes. And then let others know why "gays" are really pushing for marriage. So called.
Paula Ettelbrick, a law professor who runs the International Gay & Lesbian Human Rights Commission, recommends legalizing a wide variety of marriage alternatives, including polyamory, or group wedlock. An example could include a lesbian couple living with a sperm-donor father, or a network of men and women who share sexual relations.
One aim, she says, is to break the stranglehold that married heterosexual couples have on health benefits and legal rights. The other goal is to "push the parameters of sex, sexuality and family, and in the process transform the very fabric of society." ... [snip]
An excerpt from: In Their Own Words: The Homosexual Agenda:
"Homosexual activist Michelangelo Signorile, who writes periodically for The New York Times, summarizes the agenda in OUT magazine (Dec/Jan 1994):
"A middle ground might be to fight for same-sex marriage and its benefits and then, once granted, redefine the institution of marriage completely, to demand the right to marry not as a way of adhering to society's moral codes, but rather to debunk a myth and radically alter an archaic institution... The most subversive action lesbian and gay men can undertake --and one that would perhaps benefit all of society--is to transform the notion of family entirely."
"Its the final tool with which to dismantle all sodomy statues, get education about homosexuality and AIDS into the public schools and in short to usher in a sea change in how society views and treats us."
Chris Crain, the editor of the Washington Blade has stated that all homosexual activists should fight for the legalization of same-sex marriage as a way of gaining passage of federal anti-discrimination laws that will provide homosexuals with federal protection for their chosen lifestyle.
Crain writes: "...any leader of any gay rights organization who is not prepared to throw the bulk of their efforts right now into the fight for marriage is squandering resources and doesn't deserve the position." (Washington Blade, August, 2003).
Andrew Sullivan, a homosexual activist writing in his book, Virtually Normal, says that once same-sex marriage is legalized, heterosexuals will have to develop a greater "understanding of the need for extramarital outlets between two men than between a man and a woman."
He notes: "The truth is, homosexuals are not entirely normal; and to flatten their varied and complicated lives into a single, moralistic model is to miss what is essential and exhilarating about their otherness." (Sullivan, Virtually Normal, pp. 202-203)
Paula Ettelbrick, a law professor and homosexual activist has said:
"Being queer is more than setting up house, sleeping with a person of the same gender, and seeking state approval for doing so. . Being queer means pushing the parameters of sex, sexuality, and family; and in the process, transforming the very fabric of society. . We must keep our eyes on the goals of providing true alternatives to marriage and of radically reordering society's view of reality." (partially quoted in "Beyond Gay Marriage,"
Stanley Kurtz, The Weekly Standard, August 4, 2003)
Evan Wolfson has stated:
"Isn't having the law pretend that there is only one family model that works (let alone exists) a lie? . marriage is not just about procreation-indeed is not necessarily about procreation at all. "(quoted in "What Marriage Is For," by Maggie Gallagher, The Weekly Standard, August 11, 2003)
Mitchel Raphael, editor of the Canadian homosexual magazine Fab, says:
"Ambiguity is a good word for the feeling among gays about marriage. I'd be for marriage if I thought gay people would challenge and change the institution and not buy into the traditional meaning of 'till death do us part' and monogamy forever. We should be Oscar Wildes and not like everyone else watching the play." (quoted in "Now Free To Marry, Canada's Gays Say, 'Do I?'" by Clifford Krauss, The New York Times, August 31, 2003)
1972 Gay Rights Platform Demands: "Repeal of all legislative provisions that restrict the sex or number of persons entering into a marriage unit."
[Also among the demands was the elimination of all age of consent laws.]
Let me know if you want on/off this pinglist.
Uh, David Gest and Liza Minnelli.
(Denny Crane: "Sometimes you can only look for answers from God and failing that... and Fox News".)
LOL .....yet so true.
That's definitely part of it. Why do gays whore around so much? Because they can. Imagine if straight men knew there were chicks waiting too hook up with them in the Strawbridge's restroom. There would be a line around the block.
Wait til the international brotherhood of fudge packers here this . ( Call Elton and have him put it on hold ) .. .. ..
Great summary of the written words of the vile Homosexual Gay Agenda pushers.
Is this on your home page?
My ex sister in law and her hubby?
figured my question would bring lots on interesting answers and yours was another.
Freedom-loving people want government to get out of ALL involvement with defining/registering/approving/licensing people's intimate relationships and family/household arrangements.
Lesbian Sex is not all tender sapphic butterfly kisses.
I know a lipstick lesbian here in Nashville. A friend of the family. Very pretty. Rare for a lesbian in my experience.
She has been injured and in the hospital from rough stuff.
I think old maid frumpy lesbians may be more inclined to monogamy but the younger more attractive ones are not.
Further....if you look at lesbian prison sex:
It is estimated that the majority of women in a women's prison will go lesbo even though they did not in the world. This is hardly the case in men's prisons where such activity is demographically confined for the most part.
Also, sexual rape and injuries amongst lesbians in prison is common....very common actually. Slashings amongst spurned lesbian lovers...again not uncommon.
So, I hate to to just flat out disagree but I do.
It would appear that on the surface that lesbians are really just tender kisses but that is just not true about many of them.
Male sexuality is inherently destructive?
Maybe in homosexual S&M clubs but otherwise I think you need to lay off the women's studies dear.
Lord have mercy. I have never been destructive to a woman in my life....before or during marriage. Women are to be respected sexually and any man raised by a decent daddy knows that.
PS: I do agree men are more promiscuous as a rule...no doubt. Although women seem to be gaining.
It is folly to correlate male homosexual and heterosexual patterns. The former is deviant by it's nature. The latter is not.
You are right.
Nice to see a little honesty around here re the bottom-line differences between gays and straights. We could use more of that.
Wow. Just...wow. Very disturbing.
