Who says you wouldn't have access to it? If same sex marriage becomes the law throughout the nation, you would have the same access to it as any gay or lesbian couple. Just because you might not want to marry someone of the same gender as you doesn't mean you couldn't do it.

But, but, but other people will get the exact same rights I have in a manner that in no way, shape or form harms or even affects me. Can't you see how that is discrimination against me and clearly makes me a victim.

Homosexuality is no more a 'disorder' than my having been born female.

Keep your Homosexual agenda out of the schools, your causing harm to the children.
Where in his statement did he say he was homosexual?

I'm not, straight as an arrow. But I know I didn't choose to be straight, guys just don't turn me on.

As such, I know its not a choice.

And youths are catching on because they understand that your POV is wrong. Just like my grandfathers view of black folks was wrong, and I grew up knowing that.

Your view will die with you.

BS if that’s the case then why haven't you Homosexuals went after Federal Civil Unions with all of the same rights as marriage?

Why do you try to fight for each state when the President of the United States of America is offering his endorsement for every right you claim you want?

To be fair, I've clearly stated on here that I suffer from the mental illness of homosexuality (sarcasm).

You don't know much about legal marriage do you?

When you get your marriage license, and both parties sign it, and its notarized, you are married, period. No ceremony needed.

The vows are just for show.

You can go before any priest in the country and take marriage vows, without a license, it means nothing legally.
