Gay Marriage

A friend of mine recently said "Why are we fighting for gay marriage when it's been proven that marriage doesn't work in the first place ... shouldn't we be fighting to take marriage out of government period?"

thoughts?

I think your friend is a bit pessimistic )) I hope to live in the country someday letting me to marry a guy whom I love and have kids and family as well as str8 people do ) Good and long-term marriages is a result of hard work of 2 loving people, so everything depends on you in fact ) I will fight for gay marriages and advise all gay people wanting to have a family to support me.

Four years ago, my partner and I had an amazing wedding--one of the best days of our lives, with our family and close friends there to celebrate with us. Alas, we live in a state where gay marriage won't be a possibility for a long time to come, if ever. From the standpoint of legal and moral equality, we deserve to be as married as any straight couple. From the standpoint of my happiness every day, things are good.

Perry v. Schwarzenegger just might prove you wrong. Fingers crossed.

I think we ought fight for gay marriage everywhere. Here in Germany, it´s possible to get married homosexually. That´s why my partner and me have engaged. We wanna get married soon. Thank God we can! Therefore yes!

I remember back in 2008, my ex and I were so excited about gay marriage becoming a reality in CA. Especially since I wanted him and I to move there in the future. If not, we were pretty sure that NY would be the next state to legalize it. Then Prop 8 came and we were both extremely disappointed. Unfortunately, he is not with me anymore. I'm extremely skeptical that he's gonna keep it up with his new lifestyle and he'll come out of the closet one more time.

I sense that gay marriage will be a reality in other states. I can really feel it. Gay marriage has come a long way and I know there will be some more progress. Who knows, it may get legalized in NY in a couple years or so. I would love that to happen. That means my neighbors will have the opportunity to marry. Obviously, I'm all for gay marriage. I don't know about my parents... my dad... yeah he's sadly homophobic. My mom isn't homophobic and she still believes marriage is between a man and a woman.

It's the 21st century. Gay marriage should be a reality worldwide and there should be no problem with it at all. As soon as soon as these dinosaurs (the people against it and stuff) die out... I have a gut feeling that gay marriage will be a reality all parts of the world. I may not be alive to see it and I know it'll take for it to be possible in all parts of the world.
