Talk about being oblivious.
You're oblivious because
you know nothing about the principles of marriage and why back then the government felt there was a need to step in and give that group of people privileges. It wasn't meant to discriminate homosexuals, if that's what you believe.
Obviously, you're on that wave of let's just give everybody "Rights" otherwise it's discrimination
. Help a man get pregnant, he should have a right to have a full-working uterus or it's inequality!
The Gay Movement for Gay Marriage is not even about their right to get "married" but a principle move. They want to stick it to heterosexuals (no pun intended). Gays know that a gay marriage is different from a heterosexual marriage. Why do they have to "mimic" a heterosexual partnership in order to feel equal? That's what they're saying by pushing for this.
I ask, "why piss off a big group of people over semantics when gays can get the same benefits without marriage?" Many other relationship arrangements want and deserve the same privilege, too.
It's the same thing with the neo-Feminists. This isn't about the equal right to vote, education, employment anymore. It's about, "I won't feel equal until I, too, have a penis!"
