LOL!
But also, basically it opens up the door to Polygamy :P
Shoot, Why Not? I want to marry the Dallas Cowboys Cheerleading Squad then. What would your Militant Lesbian Cousin think of that?
That seems to be the only real solution
Most gays have very dysfunctional relationships; (at least the ones I have known and worked with). And I would bet most do not want to get married. There will be a spike in marriages for gays, especially in those States that did not allow it.
What do these people think; there will be bus loads of gays in Texas headed to the court house to get married?
Complete BS, this is the Media pushing the gay agenda, again, trying to convince people there is a large population of gays that have been waiting to get married...
We need some real reporting in a month or two on how many gays actually got married? And then check back 6 months later and see how many got divorced.
I saw an article recently that said that the percentage of "gay" men in the U.S. was around 2.7%; "gay" women 1.7%.
The numbers of "gay" people in the U.S. has always been manipulated by the advocates.
So, basically, we are redefining a bedrock institution of human society for 2-3% of the population.
Be sure to ask your attorney if you will be considered married, under the law. Without the license, you may not be able to make that claim.
It may not be important to you, but depending on the precedents that are set, you may not be able to file a joint tax return, receive widow/widower benefits from Social Security, etc.
There are a number of benefits to being married that cannot be granted by contract.
My wife and I have had to produce a copy of our marriage license recently to prove we are married, in order to be on the same family medical insurance policy.
I’d make them wait, just like everybody else.
I agree, just crazy we turn everything upside down for such a small minority. However, the media and liberals would have you think the gays represent a much larger percentage...,
