Marriage is NOT about love. Love stands alone. Marriage is about family. The old shotgun weddings, forced marriages after the unwed mother to be was with child, were a good thing, for society in general. It was/is about supporting children, the parents, the mother and the father. The union of marriage provides the best opportunity for a stable environment for children.....in the absence of marriage, what are we often left with. Permanent welfare recipients; broken homes. Love is in the heart, not in the institutions of society. If your gay and you love your partner, let them know, and leave society out of your personal affairs. Or start a petition......the will of the people should be respected in matters such as these.
Opinions are like assholes,......uh, sorry, I didn't mean to bring up your sexual orientation like that....
