Why do gays want to get married?

Posting on RF is "unnatural"

Yeah! Burn in hell! All of you! Except me, because I am just sent here by a higher power to tell you that you burn in hell .

EDIT:

Ok, please tell me if I have gone too far. Sometimes I just dont know when to shut up, lol. With my jokes, that is, especially when I am in an odd mood for some random reason.

I've become increasingly awesome the more gay I get.

Your attempt at criticism is flawed because gay is effing fantastic.

(No seriously women are sexy and so are their brains.)

I like how my girlfriend likes other woman. I will vouch for more gayness/more fantastic.

I saw this TV commercial the other day for Golden Corral, which is a buffet style restaurant, and they were advertising this chocolate fountain that's like a large waterfall of chocolate that's largely exposed to the open air, filthy fingers and double dipping, and it cycles it back through. Just the thought of it made me ill, and the music they decided to use for the commercial sounded like porno music. What were they thinking?

I'd married that fountain so no one could put their grummy paws on her.. I mean it.

Of course men and women were designed, either by God or Nature - take your pick.

Homosexuals should not get married because it is abusing the system for financial gain, is not what marriage was intended for and distorts the fabric of society.

I'd agree with you if Heterosexuals were not all getting married because it is abusing the system for financial gain. Why do homosexuals not get to abuse the system for financial agent but any ********* couple get to? I hate most ********* couples.

It's funny because in one breath we're told (by nnmartin) that gays are promiscuous,
and in the next we're told they shouldn't be allowed to marry.
Even though so many committed gay (promiscuous ) couples WANT to be legally married.

Are you trying to make sure they remain unmarried,
nnmartin,
so that you can keep saying they're promiscuous
just because they're not "married"?

That's what I said!

Marriage between same sex and trans/cis couples was as natural as hetero marriage in many First Nations cultures and in many other "traditional indigenous" cultures around the world.

Threads endorsing homophobia, racism, and woo... we have a troll trifecta here.

wa:do

Animals aren't intelligent enough - surely that is obvious.

So, you're saying, if they were intelligent enough, cows and pigs and ferrets and so on would have marriage? What about Bonobo monkeys? Would Bonobo monkeys have marriage? What do you think would be their laws regarding marriage, oh Mr. Marriage is Natural?

Of course men and women were designed, either by God or Nature - take your pick.

Evolution. Even if evolution was somehow a Divinely guided and planned for process, that doesn't mean that just because men and women reproduce when they have sex that they are meant to have emotional feelings for one another and have monogamous relationships bound by man-made ritual and law. Marriage is a man-made social contract. Whether religiously or legally, it is still defined by man, and as such, the definitions vary from man to man, culture to culture, religion to religion, and so on. Therefore, the fair and equality-respectful thing to do, in regards to secular legal marriage unions, is honor and allow for all marriages between consenting adults regardless of the gender of the participants.

Homosexuals should not get married because it is abusing the system for financial gain, is not what marriage was intended for and distorts the fabric of society.

You keep saying that, no matter how untrue or how much you don't back up your claims (I understand it is because you can't but still). You fail to say how there is abuse of a system that isn't already done by heterosexuals or what that supposed abuse even is. You fail to say what marriage was intended for, and who intended for it to be that way, and why it makes a difference to others. And you certainly haven't made any argument that establishes any cause for claiming that same sex marriage somehow "distorts the fabric of society".

You keep throwing out the most ridiculous of claims, over and over, without one shred of explanation or evidence. Again, I realize it's because you can't substantiate your claims within reality, but when do you think you'll stop the nonsense?

Crap! Now I cant get dolphin gang rape out of my head :cover:. And they used to be so cute!

Meh, we all have a dark side.

 

[The Sum of Awe]

No as I was referring to this post:




So in the case of incest, bestiality and drug use it is the same - ie: consenting adults only harming each other or themselves.

How exactly does it harm others?

 

[The Sum of Awe]

What a daft question.

How is a cow eating grass in the field natural?

that is perhaps a better question.

Men and Women were designed to be couples, even animals know that.


and by the way, a long time ago in this thread I said that Lesbian couples could adopt in certain situations.

In addition, I'll reply that marriage is manmade, so no animals wouldn't know that. Humans are animals why don't we know it? And there are gay animals...

Several species mate for life, sounds like a marriage to me. Swans are one, Cardinals another.

So, you're saying, if they were intelligent enough, cows and pigs and ferrets and so on would have marriage?

A pointless question as quite clearly a pig or ferret is not intelligent enough to have a marriage.

Evolution. Even if evolution was somehow a Divinely guided and planned for process, that doesn't mean that just because men and women reproduce when they have sex that they are meant to have emotional feelings for one another and have monogamous relationships bound by man-made ritual and law

.

I agree, but I never said anything about emotional feelings.

Adultery and monogamy issues I couldn't give two hoots about - the issue is same sex marriage - if a hetero can accept being a hetero then the same should apply to a homo .

As you keep saying - differences are good, therefore no need for a gay couple to want to be like a hetero one and copy their system of marriage.

Therefore, the fair and equality-respectful thing to do, in regards to secular legal marriage unions, is honor and allow for all marriages between consenting adults regardless of the gender of the participants.

Equality respectful - when will I be able to earn $1000 per hour as a sexy fashion model? Never, if you really want to know - so where is the equality there?

And you certainly haven't made any argument that establishes any cause for claiming that same sex marriage somehow "distorts the fabric of society".

How about the 'I can do the whatever I like because other people do it too' or 'I deserve the same entitlement because I am me' . This destroys the fabric - people only think about themselves and this is evident by observing the spreading 'Culture of Me' around the Western world.

when do you think you'll stop the nonsense?

Never.

maybe because you're not sexy :areyoucra


do you adhere to double standards?

re:

Of course those 3 crimes harm others.

Incest - distorts the gene pool and creates imbeciles - bad for society.

Bestiality - Can bring animal diseases into the human population.

Drug abuse - Creates addicts, dealers, gangs etc..


there are exceptions of course to some of these.

It is still a form of discrimination.

However, I know that I am in no way suitable to be a fashion model therefore I accept and cherish my differences.

Gays should do the same and stop with their nonsense of wanting to be the same when quite clearly they are not.

Note , I have never said there is anything wrong with being gay and I think it fine that it is legal - in many countries it is not.

 

[Straw Dog]

Mao Tse-Tung - 'Ideals are important, but reality is even more important'

For someone endorsing reality to be more important than ideals, you sure do like to impose your ideals onto reality. Such as, that gay couples shouldn't get married or raise children together despite all evidence to the contrary that "gay" marriage will in no way effect "straight" marriages unless you happen to be a gay person pretending to be straight and it will not dramatically warp the children they raise as long as its done in a loving and attentive manner. Oh, well I guess we might have to slightly alter our dictionaries, but I'm sure that won't cause the collapse of society either.

no it isn't...it seems as though you think you have the right to not be offended...
:sorry1: get used to dissapointment

good for you

Gays should do the same and stop with their nonsense of wanting to be the same when quite clearly they are not.

let me ask you this
are homosexual people---people? do they bleed like you?
do they love like you? do they hurt like you?

Note , I have never said there is anything wrong with being gay and I think it fine that it is legal - in many countries it is not.

read the above comment and then ask yourself...what the hell is your point?

Humans can also be monogamous for life without marriage. Marriage is like a contractual agreement with legal stipulations.

 

[cablescavenger]

Homosexual marriage?

I can't understand the logic behind this. For sure, some people have relationships with those of the same sex - I can understand that.

But why bother getting married?

I really cannot see the purpose.

Why would anyone want to do this and how come it is legal in some places?

Surely this should be banned.

Perhaps they want the marriage blessed by God, and have the same rights as you.
