I just want to know how this ruling affected those that oppose it... did anything change in your life because of it?
this thread is right up "jack the cruisers" alley.
why do you need a biological evidence ok to approve gay marriage?
If you accept that the state should regulate marriage...
sexual - state/public interest for a ban is maintaining tradition; traditional family as cornerstone of society. Obviously this has changed greatly in the past fifty years in the West, so obvious to see why it is on its way to becoming legal, as well as that sexuality is accepted much more in society than incest and polygamy. Human romantic/sexual relationships overwhelmingly unrelated couples regardless if hetero- or sexual.
Incestuous - state/public interest for a ban is birth defects in offspring.
Polygamous - state/public interest for a ban is mistreatment of younger males (assuming patriarchal polygamy would be more prevalent); also pressure for females to be assigned to husbands before age of consent; perhaps greater welfare utilization and child abandonment.
you're such a ..

George, why are you gay?
now that's funny.
I got raped in the butt 3 times on my way to work.
Agreed.
Also agree. I don't like the idea of kids being born out of incest. But then there's plenty of hetero couples who shouldn't be procreating either so what are you going to do?Incest: Again, consenting adults... although it would be nice if they could adopt instead of procreating, given the increased likelihood of disorders.
Let consenting adults be consenting adults.
I would also have to think that sooner or later science will be able to negate the vast majority of birth defects
Out of these three 'non-traditional' relationship types, the one with the most compelling public interest to ban is the incestuous relationship. Other than the reasons mentioned above, the sheer legal complexity of polygamy might also be considered, though the prevalence of divorce and remarriage has made things rather complex as it is in family law.
So there is no evidence of any biological reason for being gay?
Just seven, one family member the rest are friends.
4 of them oppose gay marriage, must be a Texas gay thing.
for the purpose of marriage, why is it an issue for you?
Not if they are the same sex or infertile
True, but that fear comes from who is practicing it now, Muslims/wierdo cultist christians.Polygamous - state/public interest for a ban is mistreatment of younger males (assuming patriarchal polygamy would be more prevalent); also pressure for females to be assigned to husbands before age of consent; perhaps greater welfare utilization and child abandonment.
No. Zero. Nada.
One ran of to SF to get fake married to her girlfriend. When they split up I asked her if her partner was going to get half of her business. The look on her face was pretty funny.
Never said it was. I don't care if it's legal or not.
I can't even count how many I've known throughout the years and while some of them would consider themselves Republicans, not a single one of them opposes gay marriage.
of course, one could argue the same for any female having a child over the age of 35 and particularly in her 40's.
Eh, fair enough point. I guess it would theoretically be "ok", though I'd certainly personally disapprove. It'd be for whatever child was brought up in that household. But since we allow all types of ty parents nowadays to have a kid anyways...
Hopefully so.
Risk is much greater for incest, most likely, and at all ages.
We'll cross those bridges if/when we get there.
