I think Gay Marriage should be legal , but like Darth Erebus would say...I don't like the idea of getting married.If I ever do get married, it would more likely be with a guy since I am more attracted to men than women. However, i don't want to have a wedding, etc...for some reason i just don't want the ceremony for myself.
I don't feel I need it to validify any relationship I have. Being with the one I love is enough for me.
Personally, my only motivation for a marriage would be the financial benefits. But if other Gay Men or Women want to marry thier lovers, then I am all for it ! 🙂
Just have to say I respect the honesty in this statement. It's hella cool 😎
From my personal point of view, marriage (to me) is all but meaningless. I'm not religious so there'd be no 'eyes of god' to get married 'before', I really don't think being a registered couple makes you in any way 'official', unless you idolise whatever government you're under, so the legalities mean nothing to me either. I doubt I'll get married because I don't think there's much chance of finding anyone I could trust enough to make that commitment to, just in case it all fell apart. Divorce is the shittiest thing I've ever experienced and it was my parents who got divorced, I wasn't even directly involved and it was agony.
As for whether the participants are opposite in gender or the same, who cares? You're asking me if I think it should be legal or not? Even if 'legal' meant anything to me I wouldn't deign to answer that question. When did I earn the right to judge anyone or anything? I'll judge myself and that's as far as it goes. It's not a case of wanting to avoid commenting on a sensitive subject, more of not wanting to share an opinion on a subject I know nothing about. Each to their own, if you're 100% in love and certain about everything you need to be certain about then good luck to you.
I hope that made sense, I'm sleep deprived at the moment. It could go one of two ways; I babble incoherently or I make the most poignant comments I've ever made. We shall see 😄
