It may happen often, but it's not fun to see such statistics.
Then argue for anti-sodomy laws, if you really feel that people should be protected against themselves. It's a little sad that you're forced to reduce the institution of marriage to just the sex act to build an argument.

Marriage, by definition, can NEVER include 2 of the same sex.
But instead of accept this truth, some narcissistic individuals have demanded to have the definition of marriage changed.

The truth stands, though. Marriage is between a man and a woman.
Ah, found the quote. Shaw's "Caesar and Cleopatra", act II:

"Pardon him. Theodotus: he is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature."

You'd thinks so, but statistics reflect that even in committed relationships, those with homosexual fetishes change partners often - and with increasing rates, the longer the committed relationship.

It's sad because they're looking for the right fit in vain.

The institution of marriage is between a man and a woman - not between 2 of the same sex who are helping each other get off on fetishes.

Exactly.

I think it might be because those with homosexual fetishes, deep down realize they are just fetishes, but want to try to convince themselves and others that they're special - hence, all of the parading around on streets.

We've already established that you define marriage in terms of "getting off". No need to reiterate.

It is obvious truth that the anus is an exit only.
Basic human anatomy.
The fetish of anal sex produces anal fissures, anal cancer, colon rupture & bacterial infection.
That's like saying that penis-vagina sex produces syphilis, miscarriages, and herpes. Let's ban it!

You can repeat your "fetish" lie until you're blue in the face, but it'll remain a lie.

Love is not a fetish.

Except in jurisdictions where same-sex marriage is legal, in which case it can also be between a woman and a woman, or a man and a man.

Hope that clears things up for you.

I think that there are people who really do fall in love with the same sex but the amount that it seems to be increasing by, to me, seems to come from the media taking a lot of taboo from it and people getting curious and exploring something they were afraid to explore before. I don't think there's nearly as many homosexuals out there as there seems to be in this day and age and i think we just need to rebalance. Many of us are ridiculously off balance and need to explore why that is for ourselves.

We just need to give people space to rebalance themselves.

So for that reason, I'm in support of gay marriage. I don't care what the dictionary says. We've defined and redefined words for years and we've created words to describe what we feel and what we mean as well. So I'm not stressing about this.

Today, some in the real world would like to attempt to control the thoughts of others by misusing the word "marriage".

While I personally have no objections to homosexual civil unions with identical benefits and rights to marriage, if intelligent people to allow themselves to be manipulated into redefining marriage when the real intent of doing so is normalizing homosexuality, then even more fundamental words like "normal" will be sacrificed as will the common sense associated with distinguishing between that which is normal and that which is not.

Because then it would be the same manipulation under a different name.
