Dearie, it's those who say "Family can ONLY be this particular constellation", that are the ones who are on the wrong side of history. You are free to like traditional families all you want. What's wrong is that you want to deny other people rights that you take for granted.
Now, homophobes are shouting at and beating gays in schools, restaurants, and public facilities.
The Supreme Court has since ruled Prop 8 to be unconstitutional, just as it once ruled Separate but Equal to be unconstitutional.
Honey, no-one is threatening marriage between a man and a woman; that is and will always be the majority of marriages. Gay people just want to ALSO have the opportunity to get married, not INSTEAD OF. Can you grasp the difference?
Perhaps we have a case of projection; you want to deny them rights, so you assume that they want to deny you rights…
Not all men can impregnate, and not all women can be impregnated. It’s biologically possible for it to be this way, too.
Eggs can be fertilized in petri-dishes, and inserted into a woman’s womb. Also, there are many-many-many orphans and neglected children in this world, who need a family, and probably couldn’t care less whether the long awaited parents are men or women, black or white, tall or short, left-handed or right-handed, as long as they are loving and supportive.
Women can reinforce discipline too, and men can act as caretakers of young children, teaching them important lessons into adolescence and adulthood. In Sweden, the 16 months of paid parental leave per child is meant to be split between the parents. Breastfeeding mothers usually take the first six to eight months. Then the father takes a couple of months.
Funnily enough, more men than usual take out parental leave during world cups and other large sports events. :P
