Somebody call in the English teachers! :p

Thanks for sharing that article with us, Fenix. It's nice to see Rhett get some face time...in more ways than one. :D

Link - I know it seems it's mostly gay guys like moi, Bard, Swt, Nick, et al making much of the fuss, but straight shooters are throwing in their 2 cents. Fenix, Void, and others. A slight dichotomy, but then gays and lesbians and their friends probably feel a more vested interest in the topic.

We're not only contending with the larger hetero population and their stance, but deciding what marriage will mean inside the gay community itself. Will it be the same as for straights or another kind of animal completely?

I have to admit, I'm surprised by the level of support everyone's offered. There hasn't been one post completely denouncing gay marriage/union. We've quibbled over terms and definitions, but no one's stood up and outright said they were against the notion of gays being allowed some form of marriage or civil union.

There are people who post on the board whose opinions I'm dying to know, but they'll offer them if they feel strongly enough or are comfortable enough to express them.

And since no one has has shut this thread down, I'm guessing the moderators are ok that we're discussing it...so long as things don't get too graphic or heated. :)

So thanks, Nadav, John C, and Sunfire!
