Tell me again why people who wallow in same-sex ‘love’ want to get married?

Oh yeah, it’s all about the money. Tax breaks, insurance, etc.

How many years have we been told gays are not promiscuous?

And then, to justify same-sex marriage, we are told it would help promote monogamy within the gay community.

And now, they boast of promiscuity?

But hey, what do I know? I’m just one of those “breeders.”

"With straight people, it’s called affairs or cheating, but with gay people it does not have such negative connotations.”

Because they're already perverts - it doesn't surprise anyone when perverts act perverted.

Colleen Hoff, one of the study's researchers, remarked: "With straight people, it’s called affairs or cheating, but with gay people it does not have such negative connotations.”

I scoff at Hoff.

From the movie, The Harrad Experiment, people were sometimes misled to believe an "open" marriage was a good idea. (Yes, Colleen, openly nonmonagamous 'straight' marriages were called "open marriages" decades ago.) I knew some couples who decided maybe that was the way to go.

Not one marriage survived such experimentation then, nor did the marriages of those who tried that later.

Not one.

Traditional 'straight' marriages, with and without children, and with a reasonable presentment of fidelity have frequently survived decades, in contrast.

As for the gays, my bet is that this has been about tapping 'spousal' medical benefits all along, and not establishing any long term monogamous relationships.

Attempting to tear down the institutions you claimed you wanted to emulate does not strengthen your case advocating a sick parody of the sacrament of Holy Matrimony.,

This garbage from the NYT is all about deconstructing and destroying marriage. It’s not possible to give most gays children, but they can’t stand recognition and benefits to straights raising their own so this Slimes article idiotically promoting infidelity is the latest salvo in the Leftist/gay attempt to destroy marriage which, to the extent accomplished, they believe will benefit their feckless, out of touch socialist ideology.

“We had to destroy the institution to save it.”

Oh, that’s rich.

I think it’s polyandry? Shhhhh, it’s a little secret my gay male friend told me... They can still go to bars and pick up someone new... together....

Ping.

Did I not say same-sex marriage was a way to get to polygamy?

Gee, wouldn’t that benefit another segment as well?

Hey, the more out of traditional families, the less kids and more degradation of society... it’s what any social engineer would want.

Lord have mercy.

The main reason that gays want to be married is the same reason that Satan wants to destroy everything that is holy. Whatever gays may say about their reason for wanting to get married, the driving force that leads them to degrade themselves also leads them to destroy what God has instituted and blessed. Their abominations know no bounds.

LOL! I’m sure. What do you expect from perverts?

Marriage is a sacred covenant before God in which one man and one woman leave their parents and become one flesh, “forsaking all others ...” Many atheists value the positives of marriage enough to modify the institution and skip God’s role in that bond, but they generally at least try to keep the rest of its features. It looks like the activists want to abandon every aspect of marriage except the name. How can they possibly believe there is anything positive in adopting a word that they are redefining to the point where it no longer shares any significant features with its current meaning. [I know the leaders of the movement recognize that their goals and methods are evil, but how can any followers be deceived?]

Just one more example how the NYT has lost all credibility. You take away fidelity and you don’t have a marriage—period. Any couple that agrees to an open marriage is just one step away from divorce. And then there is the little matter of the paternity of the children. Most men are just itching to raise someone else’s kid. [/s]

And they want to bring all this bilge into the institution we call “marriage?” Keep in the sewer, fags.

...a New York Times article has suggested that doing away with the concept of spousal fidelity in marriage represents an "evolution" that "might point the way for the survival of the institution."
Universal health care certainly removes one obstacle to monogamous and legally recognized committed relationships. Thanks 2ndDivisionVet.
