Just like Chuck and Larry...
This is the pandora’s box we open when we destroy the conventional institution of marriage. Once you go beyond a man-woman marriage, it is all bets are off.
Gay marriage supporters have anticipated the OP’s question. That is why they are no longer calling it “gay marriage.” They call it “same sex marriage” for a sinister purpose. Taking gay out of it means any persons of the same sex can marry. Gay is irrelevant now. Any man can take any man, get a license, and get married.
Happens all the time. I know a friend’s nephew who married a Chinese woman in exchange for $10,000. He planned to divorce her as soon as she got her citizenship papers. Her sister who was already in the USA, paid him the $10,000 knowing he would divorce her. She was fine with that, as long as he married her and made her a US citizen. The only person in the dark was the mail order Chinese bride.
The last laugh was on him, though. He fell in love with her and ended up bringing over her parents, grand parents, extended family, and last I heard they were all living in the same house. So much for the best laid plans of mice and men.
It’s always a choice to commit the act, regardless of how the attraction came. One can have attractions, but one has a choice about how to act on them, or how to interpret them.
But that’s a good point, how do gays tell that anyone of them is truly gay?
Fact is, they can’t. Anne Heche, a singer, was supposedly lesbian, but after her “divorce” to Ellen Degeneres, she has been messing around in “Britney Spears” type marriages to men ever since. A number of other lesbian entertainers have done a similar thing.
I always thought I was a cowboy, but I just found out I’m a lesbian.
“Or a man and another man and another man.”
Only if they find a judge who can’t count.
LOL of course, the gun was the first thing I noticed, but being a girl I think that’s a safe indicator that I’m not gay.
I have frequently thought of homosexual behavior in terms of an addiction, like alcholism. I appreciate your insight.
Well...I didn’t necessarily say it was an addiction. My point was that what I’ve observed about homosexuality, and what I’ve experienced as an alcoholic seem to have a number of similarities...and you can draw your own conclusions from that, whether or not it’s an addiction. They are both compulsions to indulge in deviant behaviors, and I don’t mean “deviant” in a negative connotation, but merely that they “deviate” from the normal baseline. In other words, *something* compels the alcoholic and the homosexual to engage in abnormal and self-destructive behaviors. If the average homosexual’s experience is anything like mine with alcohol, they will find themselves seeking comfort and trying to fill a spiritual void in their behavior, and keep coming up empty until they confront it, accept the way they are, and choose to no longer be controlled by their inclinations. That’s why, for the discreet homosexual, I have pity and compassion. For the flaming agenda pusher who demands that society accept their behavior, I have the same contempt as I would have for a group insisting that alcoholics be exempted from DUI and public drunkeness laws because that’s “who they are.”
did she fall in love with him?
sounds like he had a dower.
dower=dowery
Play a Barbra Streisand song, and if you are not covering your ears and praying for death after two minutes....YOU'RE GAY!
Hard to say if she fell in love with him. She was very mad when she learned her sister had paid thousands to him to bring her to the USA. The mail order bride thought he just wanted to marry an Asian girl. She was none too happy when she learned he was paid to marry her.
It all worked out and they are still together after a dozen or more years. Maybe she fell in love with him and maybe she just sees it as her duty to her family? He thinks she loves him, but who knows?
