    I would definately go. Ignorance and prejudice is not eliminated in global ways, it is eliminated one small act at a time. One person doing one small thing, changing one mind.
    "We give dogs the time we can spare, the space we can spare and the love we can spare. And in return, dogs give us their all. It's the best deal man has ever made" - M. Facklam

    "We are raised to honor all the wrong explorers and discoverers - thieves planting flags, murderers carrying crosses. Let us at last praise the colonizers of dreams."- P.S. Beagle

    "All that is gold does not glitter, Not all those who wander are lost; The old that is strong does not wither, Deep roots are not reached by the frost. From the ashes a fire shall be woken, A light from the shadows shall spring; Renewed shall be blade that was broken, The crownless again shall be king." - J.R.R. Tolkien

    I stood up for my sister at her ceremony when she "married" her partner. (Gay marriage is not legal in Ohio) And I was invited to my cousin’s marriage to his partner this past summer in NJ, but I could not attend but would have been there in a heartbeat if time allowed.

    It's all about supporting those that you love.

    If you want to go, go.

    Don't let the ignorant prejudice of others ruin an important day for your friends.

    I agree with what Karen said and many others.

    If these guys are your friends, by all means, go to the wedding and join in the celebration.

    I feel sorry for anyone that would feel that it's necessary to target someone in attendance. This prejudice needs to stop in this world.

    I think it's great that these fellas love each other so much, they decided to get married and invite all their friends. Enjoy!!

    Thanks Barry!

    I helped organize & set up a gay wedding for Dec 2ed 2006. I went & there were no issues, except most of the guests didn't show up & the ones that did, left right after dinner. Very few of them wanted to be there. It was all us young adults that stayed & partied.

    Now these gay men are NOT nice... I know many nice ones, but I wanted to point out that gay men are still human & can still be horrible people.

    But in general, they tend to be far more pleasent.

    Yes there are narrowminded people who can't evolve past what they think should be. I would go if I were you just to show your support for your friend and they life partner. If they want to be idiots let them. You're obviously above that.

    Well Romance you sure do have your answer.
    CATTY----I'm rolling around laughing here, of course they invited some "straight "people----they invited Romance and she's married and straight....lol. That was cute, I'm real tired today, so it doesn't take much to make me giggle.

    Heck not worse than what I was just reading a few days ago----don't know where exactly but a Mormon guy was arrested for having a bunch of wives.
    That really surprised me because I thought they all had lots of wives, didn't know they made it illegal. Of course I don't follow that junk too closely, just that this was in a newspaper that was left in a restaurant I went to.

    Go and enjoy yourself you spoiled brat Romance.

    I consider it an honor to be invited to a freind's wedding. If they invited you, they want you there. In this world there will always be people who don't like who you are, what you do, or how you live your life. They probably weren't on the guest list, so why worry? Enjoy!
