hey guys, should gay marriage be allowed? when you select your answer, give a response. remember to actually THINK before you say whatever comes to your mind first...
i say yes, b/c religion shouldn't be able to tell people who can love one another, and who or who cannot be fit to raise children, or benefit from having a partner to live their lives with.
this ideal of "it's christian/not christian and therefore is right/wrong" has got to stop.
if we were to go along with majority religious ideals, we'd all do what the muslims want us to do, b/c they're the world's majority anyway. so, chew on that a bit.

I don't believe gay marriage should be allowed, but a same-sex partnership without the word marriage I would be for. I always see marriage as a union between male and female.
If two people of the same sex want to get "married" call it a partnership and recognize it legally. My opinion of course.
I am a Christian but probably unlike many, I'm liberal. So as I do see something wrong with it, I could care less if that's they way they want to live their life. Whatever makes 'em happy :p

I definitely do. And even if it isn't called "marriage" at least the allowance of equal rights to gay couples that match their hetero counterparts. I am all for it and hope the US takes the nod from Canada to embrace equal rights and stop discriminating based on sexual orientation.

All those liberal ideals Matt was spitting out are total bullshite, the only reason he says yes, and I mean the ONLY reason, is because he wants me to propose. You can't fool me Matt, you can't fool me. --~

Personally I don't have a problem with gay people. If they want to get married, they should be able to... it's not up to me or you, it's up to them.

Personally I think it is up to the church. If there is a church willing to wed two people of the same sex then that is fine by me.

as princeable i feel marriage is to be between a man and a woman... but I do not oppose partnership ats that would allow people dating or in a relationship to visit the other if they are in a hospitol or stuff like this...

this goes back to the old argument about whether it's an institution of religion or the state, and i say it's of the state. after all, no matter how many times you're married in front of god, what do you always have to do next? go to the courthouse and get a license saying that your marriage is LEGAL.
people don't have to have church to get married, so why can't they have a legal marriage, without the church?

I can see where Sean is coming from, although I think many conservatives think that gay couples who have "civil ceremonies" get enough benefits from that, when the benefits don't come close to what hetero couples receive, including seeing your partner in the hospital, not being able to make them legal if they are foreigners, right-to-die responsibilities, and many other financial benefits that come with a legal hetero marriage.
I'm not with gay marrages. You know it makes us (the united states) look bad. i never hear anything about other countries having guys go with guys or anything.
guys with guys also causes alot of disease which can spread realitivly quickley like through blood or saliva
if for example if some guy thats gay sticks his gum under a table and another person accedently touches it and then eats something with his hands on the food then hes gonna be infected too...

ok, jaga, that's the most completely ignorant post i've ever SEEN on these boards. and yes, i'm using the term ignorant very seriously here. first, let's look at your arguments:
so the US is the only country in the world with gay people? i don't think so. in fact, homosexuality is not region-specific, nor time specific. it has been around since the beginning of mankind... saying that legalized gay marriage would make the US look bad is simply stupid.
secondly, disease is now a punishment for homosexuals? please tell me you don't actually believe this bupkiss...there are all kinds of diseases you can contract that you don't have to be homosexual in order to do so...INCLUDING AIDS!
which brings me to your final point about gay guys giving people disease through a piece of gum left lying around...this scenario first assumes that only gay people have aids, and therefore are the only ones that can spread it. aids isn't gender-specific, nor is it sexuality-specific...there are just as many non-gays that have aids or hiv as gays.
your entire argument is prepostorous...by your logic two heterosexual people shouldn't be allowed to be married b/c they too could have disease to spread to others...the logic here is extremely flawed. your post is quite ignorant, and i encourage you to research something before you make stupid claims about it...

LOL, that is a joke right? I swear that was taken straight out of the 1920's.
This stuff completely enrages me. Maybe if Bush would spend more money on his failed "Leave No Child Behind" plan, we wouldn't get stupid ignorant posts like that. It's sad to see that society has bashed into our heads that it's ok to be like this towards someone else, simply based on who they fall in love with. Who is it hurting, really. If I got married to another guy right now, who would it effect? Nobody. Why do people put so much emphasis on marriage being between a man and a woman, when it should be about the relationship betwee two people and if they are in love and commited. What is the main reason people still have a medieval mindset regarding this? It's mainly religion. Organized religion places huge pressure on politicians, and they can't stand the thought of gays getting married because it's an abomination of everything in which their pitifully weak minds believe. Naturally the Republicans are all too eager to go to bat, so at least one major party is in support of banning gay rights all together. There's no doubt gays will take two steps back for every step forward, but eventually they'll win. Ignorance cannot hold its ground much longer, I feel.
And for those that think they are proving a point by using things from the bible to justify intolerance and promote ignorance, please feel free to read this.

but any way...haha..ahem...seriously, there's nothing wrong with it, it's not for you to decide unless you're homosexual and you want to get married, by saying no to them getting married, you're saying that they shouldn't get health benefits from married couples and whatnot. that's no different then saying black people can;t get married, or whit poeple ca't get married, it's simply racist and if you say that homosexuals shouldn't be allowed to get married then you should be ashamed of yourself. are homosexuals any diffent thenn you or me or him or her or watever? no, we're all people and we should all be treated equal. who says it's not right? who's to say that it shouldn't be? who are you to say that two people in love cannot express their love in the way they'd like to. it's frigging stupid. but fine, disagree, but it's not you getting married, it doesn't directly effect you so why do you care? do you honestly care if it's not you or someone you know directly? of course you don't and don't lie about it! man, it jsut sickens me how homophobic america is, which is why i want to move out as soon as i can. man, my mom's friend, went to go give blood last year, and they wouldn't let him cause he's gay. it makes no sense, it doesn't effect his blood if he's gay, it just means he's gay. plain and simple, nothing more nothing less. but if you still disagree with me. LOOK OUT HE'S GOT THE GAY!! AHH! RUN FOR YOUR LIVES! so don't talk to me or touch me or you might catch the gay. boogity boogity boogity. i've been on these forums for a while, and i think that it's safe to say most people here like me or respect me in some way, but because i'm gay.(yes i am), does that change anyhting? no. i'm still patrick mugan who hates ps2 and kinda likes xbox and hopes the psp fails and who is good friends with primetimer and talk to monkeylord sometimes but hasn't talked to nigel in a while. i'm still me and they're still them. it doesn't change them completely, it doesn't change me completely. it's no big deal, really. it doesn't force you to pay more taxes, does it? it doesn't make your life more stressful, does it? no. so wha's wrong with it? if someone could tell me an answer that makes sense i'd LOVE to hear it. but make sure youre ten feet away from me so you don't catch the gay.

people who use the bible to make a case against gay issues make me want to .... kick a kitten....

Ok, let me ask another question in relation to the whole homosexual discussion:
Do you think that people are born gay or is it the result of something?
Personally, I believe it is the result of a traumatic event for a few reasons. First off, biologically speaking the point to ANY organisms existance is to reproduce, thus keeping the population strong and alive. If a species/organism cannot reproduce it can be viewed as weak or defective. If you take away the ability (or in this case, the desire) to reproduce, the species becomes extinct.
But ofcourse, humans are not simplistic creatures. We are complex beings with multiple emotions, thus leading to my other reasoning
Being homosexual is an alteration to the standard sexual desire, a modification to the libido. Name any other instance similar to this that is NOT the result of something. In this sense homosexuality and a simple fetish are of the same vein. No one is born addicted to S&M or with foot fetishes. No one is born a pediphile or necrophile either. I do not mean to compare homosexuals to pediphiles, there are VAST emotional and moral differences. I am just stating that I believe there are some similarities to be found between someone who prefers someone of their own sex and someone who prefers something else when it comes to sex
(hope i didnt come off as too much of a homophobe or biggot or whatever)
What are your thoughts?

My thoughts... Well... I believe it can be a factor of both biology and environment. However, to say that it is similar to a fetish that someone developes would be a pretty uneducated remark. who is to say that heterosexual sex is the standard? The same people that said black people were inferior? The people that are behind organized religion? Yes, the biological need to procreate is embedded in every living organism, as well as a thing called "attraction". Different (simpler) organisms use different techniques.. colors, flying patterns, mating calls. Thus we come to a thing called "natural selection" which I'm not about to go into. I've seen plenty of dogs, and cats, and other animals trying to mate with the same sex. human beings have feelings, and desires, and a lot of other things.. i was never traumatized as a child, yet, I still prefer men. so I don't think that every gay person was traumatized is a good argument... this is really babbling post.. there is a friend at the door and it's like 10 degrees out... I'll post more later

If a species/organism cannot reproduce it can be viewed as weak or defective. If you take away the ability (or in this case, the desire) to reproduce, the species becomes extinct.
Well first off (and I think you alluded to this), gay people can reproduce just fine. That is they absolutely have the ability to reproduce, but do not have the orientation that makes them want to copulate with the opposite sex. The plumbing works, but not in the same way. Even with the existence of homosexuals, there is no way for the human race to fail, because of the existence of heterosexuals. In fact, homosexuality, in a way, cuts down overpopulation since there is no way for a girl to get a girl pregnant or a man to get a man pregnant. This also doesn't mean in any way homosexuals cannot form familial bonds or have prosperous families of their own.
As most gay/queer people report, they had "feelings" for the same sex from a very young age. So then comes the argument of nature versus nurture, and you suggest there is a "trauma" which "creates" a homosexual - which some believe is caused by molestation, an overbearing father, overbearing mother, overbearing pets, neglect, physical abuse, seeing grandma naked on accident, whatever.. as far as I know there is no conclusive study to prove that, and there are similar traumatic events that have happened to heterosexuals that didn't "turn them gay".
So that leaves you to of course try to conclude logically for yourself whether it is nature or nurture - and since there is no scientific close-to-widely-accepted data that proves that gay people are "created" by traumatic events, perhaps you can look to the gay community itself (and the medical community) who insist that homosexual feelings are a trait that is present from the earliest period of life.
But ofcourse, humans are not simplistic creatures. We are complex beings with multiple emotions, thus leading to my other reasoning
Being homosexual is an alteration to the standard sexual desire, a modification to the libido. Name any other instance similar to this that is NOT the result of something.

I am just stating that I believe there are some similarities to be found between someone who prefers someone of their own sex and someone who prefers something else when it comes to sex
Unfortunately you're defining homosexuals through sexual activity. Pedophilia and necrophilia (or for that matter sexual attractions to leather, sports mascots or Princess Peach) are not orientations - that is to say, men and women who practice these "fetishes" are not born wanting to have relations with dead people and children, they are adult psychological fetishes that are defined as a classically conditioned need for a fetish item - that would mean that for gays, other gay people are "fetish items" and I like to think that for gay people, lovers and lifemates are more than fetish items.
In fact, and it would be hard for you to understand, homosexuals are not simply defined by their sexual activities but also defined by deeper core feelings and acts including love, jealousy and intellectual attraction to the same gender. Gays are not just sexual beings, just as heterosexuals are not defined by their sexual activity. If you were paralyzed or could no longer perform sex, would you still consider yourself heterosexual? Of course you would, because you are attracted to and have the capacity to fall in love with a woman. Same with gay people - they should be defined by more than a sexual act.
(hope i didnt come off as too much of a homophobe or biggot or whatever)
What are your thoughts?
I don't think you did, in fact, I sort of understand how your logic could lead you in that path. Although I myself don't understand how a straight guy can ever be with a woman because I don't have the capacity, or any need whatsoever to form a sexual or lasting loving bond with a female. But since society and the media show hetero couples at every single turn, of course I am made to believe that it's the only acceptable way of life - although gay issues and lifestyles (yes, Virginia, gays exist with or without society's acceptance) are coming to light and I think that makes heterosexuals wary for more reasons than I can list here - which is why it's good to have a forum like this to ask questions and get answers.
I said way too much. --~

first off, let me say that YOU are a f*cking MORON! aids isn't a disease that only affects gays...so you can cut out your "punishment" theory right there. also, if it's sooo unnatural, why is it even allowed in nature? after all, it's not specifically human to have homosexual tendencies. many primates, including chimps and gorillas, as well as many other species of mammals, are known to engage in homosexual activity.
saying that homosexuality is a sin is just plain wrong...go ahead and cite whatever you want from the bible, but know this first: there is NO word (that means none, whatsoever) in ancient hebrew (which the majority of the bible was written in) to denote homosexuality, and thus the bible cannot rant on and on against it.
now, you obviously have a f*cked up perspective if you think it reflects poorly on our country that we have GAY people here. jesus butt-f*cking christ, what the HELL are you thinking? there are gay people in ALL countries of the world, not the least of which is the US...(and, in fact, we're slightly more conservative about it than the rest of the so-called 'western' world, and thus how could it reflect badly on us if we were to become more liberal about it, considering the more liberal position in most other countries)...
you know, just reading this shit is making me sick. you are obviously uneducated and have never left your hometown of bumf*ck whereever it is you live. if anyone is going to suffer in hell, it will be you, for spewing hatred in the name of christianity, which is, believe it or not, not a vengeful religion...
to end, i will end with a quote from MY high school english teacher, when someone told him that he would burn in hell for not believing in christ: "It's YOUR hell, you burn there."
*edit* well, if you're interracial yourself, you should know that just twenty years or so ago, most people were very open when they said that interracial marriage "is just unnatural"...so, chew on that just a little bit you hypocritical prick.
sorry professor, but F*CK civility.

Anyways, another instance of outside factors having a bearing on sexual preference can be found in great numbers here in America. How many girls in this country are either bisexual or atleast bi-curious? I would venture to say a great deal, and this is most likely because of our society. I would be willing to bet we have one of the highest bisexuality percentages among women in the world because our society is so accepting of lesbianism. We are taught that two girls having sex is hot and girls are taught to look at other girls as things of beauty. Personally i know VERY few girls that arent atleast open to the prospect of maybe being with a girl atleast once in their life, and the ones who arent are usually the homophobes/bible beaters (not to bash, just stating a fact)
Yes? No? Am i just a pig that wishes so many girls were bisexual?

Choosing to be bisexual and actually being bisexual or homosexual is hard to gage. I think men and women who flirt with the same gener and pretend to be "gay" just to be hip or surprising or whatever.. AND describe themselves as gay or bi give actual gay and bi people a bad reputation. I think that most people who describe themselves as gay truly are.
The reason I think there are "more" here is because it's illegal to stone, drown or (as Bountyhunger so eloquently stated above) consider being gay a crime. There are and have always been gay and bi people all over the planet - the reason there are "more" now is because persecution has become less, and homosexuality is no longer medically considered a "mental disorder".

Yeah dude, cuz everybody knows that those dirty ******s are wicked in their hearts, they'd probably get married just so that they could commit adultary and spread more aids, the punishment that only they deserve. All gay people should be arrested and put in internment camps, yeah, then maybe we could commit genocide. Look out Satan, here comes a whole shitload of dirty queers.

Who the hell pretends to be gay? You would be bashed in a second. No one gives gay bad reputation it's just that people think all the 5 gay people they see on TV act like that. I'm completely straight acting, I just like the same sex, and until a few weeks ago no one thought I was gay. They they say me with a gay friend and some noticed me looking at them so now they know. :) But most couldn't tell, not all gays act like what is sence on TV, if they did I would force myself straight, or kill myself.

i don't know about all this acting gay stuff, but he might be referring to the new hipness of metrosexuality (a whole entirely different thing altogether)...
i agree that this man is a fucking dolt, and if anyone will burn in hell...it will probably be him.
i have several gay friends, and they're some of the greatest people i've ever met in my entire life, that doesn't mean that non-gays aren't great as well, i'm just saying that they're people, just like me...just like you...just like anyone, and that's what they should be judged as...people.
you know what really reflects poorly on america? our ignorance. not only on this issue, but other things as well...like when we refer to "OLD EUROPE" and mean it disdainfully, or when we say that we're on a CRUSADE to fight terrorism in the middle east...we show our ignorance and complete incompetence in dealing with issues all the time. i really hope this country gets its act together, or it will be people like YOU and jaga that give this country a bad rep...

I think the people who hate gays (like bounty hunter) are 1 of 2 things.
1) immature, ignorant kids that just say shit because it sounds right. Remember when you were younger and would only watch lesbian porn because you thought you might be gay if you looked at dicks? (PLEASE say im not the only one) Its the same here. They are afraid to accept gay people out of fear of being associated with them which they are convinced is a horrible thing
2) The back water, bottem of the barrel hicks who everyone looks down on thus they desperately search for group(s) of people to put below themselves. Thats the primary reason for racism in the south. Who doesnt look down or make fun of southerners? Exactly. They realize they are the bottom of the ladder so they NEED to find someone to feel superior than. Anyone understand what im saying?
Ofcourse these statements are inherently racist because they state that only children or white people can be gay bashers. Oh well, i dont have an explanation for why other races may hate gays, especially black people who dont have a foreign culture to blame their views on. Ofcourse middle class white people have no excuse either except for that whole superiority/inferiority thing.

01-22-2004, 12:22 AM
i live in south carolina, and i'm not bottom of the barrel. of course, you might be right...i'm only not bottom of the barrel b/c i hate blacks and gays...
wait a minute...point two made no sense at all...
what your second point SHOULD'VE been is: 2)they're overly-religious zealots who are convinced that jerry falwell is god's chosen savior of mankind and are also convinced of everything that comes out of the pricks mouth...which would be a much more accurate assumption than "They live in the south"
i don't even think there are that many people who live in the south on these boards...hmmm...
*edit* and no, the primary reason for racism in the south is ignorance, not b/c people are bottom of the barrel. to say that type of thing is just retarded...after all, there are MANY well-to-do people (several non-southerners in fact come to mind) who hate blacks just as much...so saying that it's a southern thing and that southerners are stupid is the most retarded thing i've heard you say lately...and you've said QUITE a few recently...

I don't think all anti-gay people are totally braindead drooling Cletus the slackjawed yokels - I think there is a lot of misinformation out there that makes people act the way they do.
And I will also say that I think men are much more likely to be gaybashers or anti-gay than women - and the reason for that is I think at heterosexual males' cores is a fear of being seeing as unmasculine and a fear of having friends, family or themselves being gay - because in many cultures homosexuality means femeninity or lack of power. So to "prove" their masculinity, they say dumbfuck things like some of the guys above to make themselves feel better about who they are and to put down "fags" in hopes they will magically "go away".
Well dammit gay people aren't going anywhere!! WHODA THUNK IT?!
I find that men who are "ok" with gay people are usually a) very confident in their sexuality and b) understand that gay people have feelings too and don't like it when they're insulted and dehumnized and defamed. I respect men, even if they are uncomfortable around gay people, who can treat another guy who happens to be gay like a person and not discriminate because of ignorant shit he was taught like AIDS PASSED THROUGH BUBBLEGUM.
I think this thread needs to be closed... theres no point in arguing with someone that has a closed mind, and a lot of hate to spread...

Unfortunately it's the people who try to pretend that they know everything about God and his wishes that makes people forget the basic teachings of Jesus Christ, which is peace, understanding, love and forgiveness.
As for the Pope, he's a different story altogether. I'm an ex-catholic (or "survivor" as I call myself) and the church's stance on protection, gays and other parts of life are so outdated and dangerous, I can't stand to see what's happened to the church. Oh well.

Gays didn't get marriaged before because they never had to. There was never all the legal stuff that comes with marriage. And here's a thought for you. For the "test of time" marriage was for whites, just whites. That changed, people got used to iut. Then interracial marriages were illegal until like just 35 years ago, or 3-4 years if you live in Alabama. People need to open there mind to new things or they will look like an ass to the later generations.

I like Queer Eye but only because it's entertaining, not because it somehow "represents" the gay community. In fact, it probably farces it a little bit, although I do know guys like that, I think for the most part, gay people are not like that.
But the reason it's successful is because it's harmless fun.

**EDIT - And Dave has a point.. just decades ago, a black man marrying a white woman was considered uncouth, ungodly and an abomination. In fact, I wouldn't doubt if there were some people who still thought that, and used the same arguments against gay marriage as they did against interracial marriage.

Wrong.. marriage as an institution has NOT withstood the test of time. It's not working due to the high number of marriages that end in divorce, so to make that statement is inaccurate. With regards to homosexuals always being around, and never marrying, you can blame prejudice, bigotry, and pagans calling themselves christians for that. Although people like to misinterpret the bible, and pick and choose things to make an argument... there is nothing in it that says homosexuality is wrong.. or that gay people should try to change, or not get married... nowhere does it say that. Try to prove me wrong on that. So to say that we should not be allowed to get married because it's an institution thats withstood the test of time... is stupid. What institution? The institution based on prejudice and lies? I don't understand why people can't think for themselves, and take into consideration the feelings and rights of other people. WHO CARES if one guy wants to marry another.. it doesn't affect you! I seriously doubt that the "sanctity of marriage" plays a big role in your day to day life.

10) The argument of the "sanctity" of marriage proposed by conservatives is a veiled attempt to push for the ideal 50's-inspired Christian nuclear family and oppress homosexuals in hopes they will either a) Move to Canada, b) Disappear, c) Turn straight and get married or d) give up an die.
I don't get that whole "it's the way it has always been" mentality as a justification for perpetuating ignorance and intolerance. Especially if this person believes that no couple should be denied [as (s)he so randomly pointed out] hospital visitation, (s)he is ackowledging that two (wo)men can have feelings for each other--feelings strong enough to form a relationship. So why should this relationship be treated any differently in the institution of marriage than a hetero couple if all the other elements of a relationship are there?
As far as I'm concerned, the church can have it's hetero marriage because I couldn't care less what the church thinks of me, but the government has no business telling me I must choose a partner of the opposite sex to be viewed equal in the eyes of the legislature.

Well you can't disprove that AIDS isn't spread through gum underneath the table.
Oh man I'm making myself laugh. Jaga's post is going to provide laughter for years to come. Why hasn't he returned???
Would that matter? Are you going to discriminate against me, and not allow me to marry another new member just because I am different?????

Catching HIV from chewed bubblegum thats been stuck to the underside of a table is pretty much impossible. Unless there is blood on it and you had an open wound that touched it. The virus that causes HIV infection dies pretty quick when it's exposed to air. Also, it can't survive long in salive, thus we get checked via blood and not saliva. I'm sure in some really remote, incredibly misfortunate crazy miracle.. it could happen... I think it's more likely that you will catch a strain of Ebola in Arkansas before that would happen....

It's amazing how you preach about the horrors of homosexuality, but love thy neighbor doesn't mean shit to you.

Hmmm, I should close this. I think that you guys said enough and might get offensive (More than you've already been).
I'm not pointing fingers, but I'm keeping my eyes on this.
