Probably true. I'm a typical "man's man". I like pickup trucks, arm wrestling, "serial belching", carpentry, chain saws, and nuclear weapons.

But every once in awhile, I catch myself listening quietly to classical music...and sometimes I even bake a cake. Once I watched a butterfly. I folded laundry last month.

Guess all of us have those "latent tendencies" that we wouldn't want 'the guys down at work" to find out about...

MacMeal, I am a lot like you; but bisexual. I drive a pick up truck, listen to country music, and had a job in construction in college.

And, yes, when there are no snacks to eat around the house, sometimes I bake something.

It's my opinion. It cheapens real marriage to call two gays married.

I've argued the point before so I won't get into it with y'all. Have fun with it.

From the OP, I thought that heteros were no longer permitted to get married in CA.
I knew that couldn't be right.

Don't surprise me none neither. Those wild Californians and their heathen ways. Next thing you know people will be marryin' critters and stuff.

Now y'all 'scuse me. I going muddin' with my brother/uncle Jeb.

Seriously though, it's time that this measure finally passed. Unfortunately I think it will be some years before this measure is adopted by other states.

Calif. gay couples get marriage licenses - Life - MSNBC.com
The title of this thread is ludicrous ... please ... there are plenty of brides and grooms left in California. I can pretty much guarantee you that there are plenty of brides and grooms that are getting hitched at this very moment. The level of "oh no gays are getting married" never ceases to amaze me. Tell me Yel .. how is Adam and Steve or Annette and Sara going to affect your daily life. Please enlighten us. As far as I'm concerned whoever wants to jump into the marriage pool is fine by me.
