1) Being gay is not natural. Real Americans always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses, polyester, and air conditioning.
2) Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay, in the same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall.
3) Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behavior. People may even wish to marry their pets, because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage contract.
4) Straight marriage has been around a long time and hasn't changed at all; women are still property, blacks still can't marry whites, and divorce is still illegal.
5) Straight marriage will be less meaningful if gay marriage were allowed; the sanctity of Britney Spears' 55-hour just-for-fun marriage would be destroyed.
6) Straight marriages are valid because they produce children. Gay couples, infertile couples, and old people shouldn't be allowed to marry because our orphanages aren't full yet, and the world needs more children.
7) Obviously gay parents will raise gay children, since straight parents only raise straight children.
Gay marriage is not supported by religion. In a theocracy like ours, the values of one religion are imposed on the entire country. That's why we have only one religion in America.9) Children can never succeed without a male and a female role model at home. That's why we as a society expressly forbid single parents to raise children.
10) Gay marriage will change the foundation of society; we could never adapt to new social norms. Just like we haven't adapted to cars, the service-sector economy, or longer life spans.

You go, Empress Orchid!!!!!! Sing the truth, my SP!! I know politics aren't allowed on the Knittyboard, but since this is your blog, I'll say this: I can't wait for the day when gay and lesbian couples can legally marry in the USA. Our brothers and sisters in the human race deserve love and partnership in the eyes of the law no matter who or how they love. And, on a personal level, I want to see my lesbian aunt finally marry her true love.
I'm marching with you, Empress!
Your SP
I just want the straight's tax breaks. Money always helps me to forget my troubles when I've in a foreign land with a tanned skinned man putting lotion on my back.

Well expressed.
Sometimes I <3 living in Canada.
Love is love no matter what form it takes. Great blog! I'm looking forward to seeing the finished scarf! Be counted, make your voice heard, vote. Yes, I said vote. It can and will make a difference when one voice is so loud that it drowns out all the retirement and insurance companies big bucks noise. Our rights on many levels are being eradicated by the minority right. SCREAM if you must but be heard! This from a 50 year old straight mom, who hopes her 7 year old son will have freedom of choice when he's 21.
