Hi Rosie,
I have nothing against gay marriages. I
was raised to be open-minded even though I
lived in a very conservative area. I
believe everyone, no matter what their
sexual preference, has the right to find
love and happiness.
I don't think anyone's private sexual
activity should be monitored by the
government or laws. I realize that every
state has it's own sovereignty and that
has caused a rift in balance for gay
marriages. But I regard sexual preference
as a private choice, and should not be
subject to religious persecution.

I have no problem with gay marriages. If 2
people really love each other and want to
spend the rest of their lives together I
don't think their sex should matter.
I would rather see 2 people of the same
sex that are commited to each other than a
person of either sex that will sleep with
anyone. Not meaning I want to see PDA.
Don't want to see affection outside of
hand-holding, hugs from anyone. At least
not on public.
And I agree with lonestar. two people
commited to long term should be privvy to
the same benefits as hetero marriages. If
gay marriage is not affecting you
personally and it bugs you, you either
have too much time on your hands or are
like most nosy religoius fanatics who
think they know what's right for everyone.

Eiri, agreed! I would much rather see a
child placed with two stable loving
parents of the same sex than stay with
biological parents who will abuse or
neglect it.
I really don't agree with invetro or
surrogate parents for homosexual or
heterosexual couples because I believe
there are already too many children out
there who need good homes without bringing
more into the world. I don't think there
should be any discrimination toward a
couple just ecause they're gay when it
comes to adoption.

Definitely pro-gay marriage!
Just as you can't control what you're
attracted to, neither can gay people.
That's just the way it is. Why
descriminate based on how someone 'is'?
If two loving, consenting people want to
commit themselves to each other, why
hinder it?
I'm proud that I live in an area that has
legalised Gay marriages.
