Isn't being married the 'same sex' over and over and over again???
Hence the reason I'm single.


I think same-sex marriage is an idea whose time has more than come. Life is short. Love is hard to find. It shouldn't matter what your social standing, skin color or sexual preference is ... if you find the love of your life, then kudos to you. Most people aren't so lucky.



I think people should be able to marry whoever they want, but I'm not so sure they should be able to adopt kids, my heart goes out to those who were adopted by a gay couple for they will be teased beyond anyones wild imagination by ignorant teens and biggots.
It would certainly be a harder life, being the adopted child of gay parents. I think where you live makes a big difference. Growing up with gay parents in San Fransisco is a whole different story from growing up with gay parents in rural Alabama, yes? However ... no one ever made us a promise that life would always be easy. Sometimes overcoming adversity as a child makes us stronger, more tolerant adults. LOTS of kids get teased. If kids decide to single out a kid and tease them, they are going to find a reason ... be it the fact that his parents are gay, his hair is curly, his mom's car is old, his skill at sports is lacking, or his math grade is high. Kids get teased, kids endure, kids grow up.



Yeah, I'd say leave them in to avoid getting teased, getting teased is pretty damaging, it causes disasters like Columbine
I hate that response. "Bullies caused the Columbine shootings" ... oh, my rear end. A mentally unstable, sociopathic teenager with a gun cause Columbine. Period. Millions of kids across the world are teased and bullied every year. Yes, it's wrong, it stinks, it should stop. But teasing and bullying alone do not make a kid get a gun and kill his fellow students. If that were the case, we'd have a "Columbine" every day, in every school. I hate the current climate in this country today ... "Boo hoo, poor me, (fill in the blank)*, so I'm not to blame for my own actions, the world owes me something."

PUUH-leese.
