    Statement One:

    Gay people are seeking equality.

    You have the right to marry and legally share your life with the person you love and to whom you are committed. A gay man wants the right to marry and legally share his life with the person he loves and to whom he is committed. A lesbian wants the right to marry and legally share her life with the person she loves and to whom she is committed.

    Statement Two:


    Gay people are seeking additional rights that go above and beyond what straight people are en led to.

    A gay man can marry a woman the same as I can.

    He/She wants the extra right (not to be confused with equality) to marry another man/women. Extra meaning that he wants +1 on top of what he and I both already have.

    Its a private poll so please vote.

    I'll have to go with statement one. I say this because gays don't want to marry those of the opposite sex for reasons relating to love.

    But, the thing is, we'd have the same rights. Heteros would have the right to marry those of the same sex, it equals out.

    I think Statement #1 is accurate.

    I think Statement #2 is basically a rhetorically-charged means to suggest that opposing same-sex marriage is grounded in something other than phobia.

    All you petty-minded little #2-believing biatches out there, please explain to me why what someone else does in the bedroom is any business of yours, and how it affects you in any way. And don't give me some Biblical bull - the world is awash with 6.8bil people, and populating the earth is no longer a priority.

    And no, to beat you to it, I'm not gay. Women, though frustrating as most of the time, still get my juices flowing (so to speak... )

    I actually think the opposite, and #1 uses "unequality" rhetoric to to suggest that everyone who opposes is discriminatory and phobic.

    Gays can marry all they want, I don't care about that part. But if they marry multiple persons and start getting tax breaks or some I shall be pissed.

    yeah right your gay lmao just kidding man, I give you all the time but I agree with you. I ing Hate women, everytime I put trust into them they do something to it up. I have friends that are gay and they have the same if not more relationship problems so it happens on the other side of the spectrum too. ing es!! I try not to treat women bad after all the times I get screwed over but its getting harder and harder.

    This country has so many bigger problems than gay marriage. Who gives a really. The fact this is one of the prominent issues blows my mind.

    Yes, my mind.

    Then the question is, is there any other reason to oppose gay marriage outside of phobia?

    I cant think of one. People will come up with some weirdo analogies that are anything but true (priests being obligated to marry gay people, etc), but it really boils down to, IMO, is "I dont like gay people, I dont agree with their lifestyle and I wont recognize them as equal citizens en led to the same rights and protections I enjoy based on my bias."
