“A Problem with Adam and Steve”

The winner of the Stupid Cunt of the Week award. Less for her opinion than for her faulty logic and inability to articulate it. Blandford is right.

    I love pointing out grammatical errors in people’s written arguments. Hey homophobe, I think you meant a woman is supposedly a “complEment” to a man, not a “complIment.” I might let such a thing slide, except that she doen’t have anything good to say and it was PUBLISHED IN A NEWSPAPER. Don’t they have proofreaders?

    Hey, ask her if she’s related to Lord Blandford the aristo-junkie.

    This post lead to a discussion between my girlfriend and me and I’d like to hear some feedback about it. We both read the ‘stupid cunt’ letter and were shouting about people like her in the car on the way home.

    Who’s fucking business is it of mine what other peopel do? Who the fuck cares what other people do? And how does what other people do pertain to any “sanctity of marriage”.

    With that said I can’t decide if I should support a civil-union provision. I mean this is like a second-class marriage license. Not enjoying all the rights of hetero couples is crap, why the second-class status?

    Should I support civil-unions even though I don’t think they go far enough. My fear is that people will yup the civil-union and think the matter is closed which would be wrong.

    In my eyes civil-unions are just a pat-on-the-head for gay and lesbian folks and hardly equality. Did someone forget about what equality fucking means?

    Support it? Don’t support it? This is making me crazy. I fear this tiny step in the right direction followed by another 25 years of apathy.

    Why does my country still disenfranchise this segment of the population unapologetically?

    Steven, I totally agree with you on all that. One the one hand, something is better than nothing. On the other hand, why settle? I read somewhere that The Netherlands had civil unions for something like 16 years before the marriage thing passed (I had no idea!). So based on that, part of me is okay with taking what we can get for the time being. However, I haven’t seen a good solid idea for civil unions that people seem willing to adopt. Not one that’s ready for legislation, anyway. I’ve seen lots of theorizing.

    But advocates need to decide whether to put their energy behind marriage or civil unions, and there’s no consensus as to which is the more viable option right now.

    Perhaps I’m too optimisitc to think that puritanical America will stop discriminating against gays and lesbians.

    I’m hoping that recent developments in proving that sexual orientation is genetic will lead to lawsuits against the federal government. It’s now illegal to discriminate against people because of genetics so maybe this will lead to something positive.

    I curse my curse this land when I hear people quoting Martin Luther King in one breath and swallows the bullshit about the ‘sanctity of marriage’.

    I have a dream where people will judge a person by the content of their character not the sex of their partner.
