right lmao
"i support gay marriage!" "i dont think they should have children...."
how is it not right? ?????? they can be just as good as parents as straight ones. come on

also my friends dont even know what homophobic means. and i had to tell them what bisexual means. i cant believe this. i wont even get into pansexuality because that will just confuse them further. im like wtf you seriously have never heard of these words before? really?

I haven't heard of pansexuals up until a while ago. I'm still not sure what it actually is though.

I know that they can be just as good parents but this leads to bullying a lot of the time for the children as they get older and they will start wondering why they have two moms/dads and wondering who their real parents are.
 
Question: is marriage a state or religious thing?

If it's state I can see why it should be equal for everyone, however if it's religious shouldn't it only be the religious gays/lesbians who should be concerned?

So straight couples shouldn't adopt either then?

Well they can keep it a secret until they grow up and understand why they did it (I don't know what they do because I don't know anyone adopted) but children with two moms/dads will be questioning why they don't have a mother and father and other children do.

I think you're being very closed-minded. Many children have same sex or adoptive parents and feel no need to question it. If a child is loved and happy, why should it matter to them?

Happy 18th birthday! You're adopted btw!
 
Studies have shown that kids that have same sex parents can behave the same way as kids with different sex parents. This is probably because the kid still has the same life as other kids. It doesn't change anything.
 
I don't know if this has been posted yet, but it's one of my favorite gifs from one of my favorite shows. Gets me every time...

yeah it sucks they can get bullied, which is why the movement exists. which is why people are fighting. to open peoples eyes. but just because they might get bullied shouldnt stop a lesbian/gay/bi/etc couple to have children.

and why would they ever wonder that? because its the normal thing to see? i dont see why they would ever care why they didnt have a dad/mom.

also gay/lesbian couples can give birth to children. (trans* lesbian/gay couples??) so they can be their biological parents....

i dont understand you. why would these children question that. we need to burn the "a mom and a dad are needed for the family!!!!!!!111!!" i honestly dont see why it matters. who cares if they have 2 moms or 2 dads.

overall, you dont support gay marriage if you dont believe that they should have children bye



EDIT: to queen
this image explains pansexuality the best

really good post explaining a lot of other stuff too

If they attend a public education, and possibly are in a very religious area; it may ruin their reputation at school or a public event.

Marriage is a state issue. Marriage predates religions like Christianity, so they can't claim any ownership over the idea, nor do they have any right to define it for those who do not follow their religion.

Churches are free to choose who they marry in their walls. So this whole idea that same-sex marriage is a violation of religious freedom is completely and totally nonsensical. In fact, banning same-sex marriage on religious grounds is the very definition of a violation of religious freedom.

Instead of banning same-sex couples adopting (just because parents don't want to spend five minutes telling their kid that some relationships aren't all just "man and woman",) maybe society should do something about the bigoted jerks that put up a fight and spread hate against that kind of thing (and therefore cause things like a child with same-sex parents to be bullied in school.)

You do realize this will never happen? Your idea of doing something towards the people who hate something is completely insane, and not possible at all.

Westboro Baptist Church purposely makes people angry and sues if they hit them or w/e.

fckh8 is so bad. its so cheesy. this is why i dont trust allies half the time. god dang. (coughs macklemore, lady gaga)

also saw some people talk about a new way to describe lgbt*qia*p i think it was called GSRM? so we dont leave out stuff y'know. (gender, sexual, and romantic minorities)
which i think is pretty cool. it includes everyone without a very long acronym.

I'm getting a little ****ing tired of people in the community hating on allies. There's enough people who don't like the LGBT community. Quit *****ing about the behavior of the people who do like us.

i dont hate all allies, but allies who act like theyre the best things in the world for supporting make me sick. the more allies, the better! but seriously when allies who turn around and say "you woulndt be anywhere without us" or "listen up, without us you would be nowhere" are the most useless things ive ever seen. macklemore is a terrible ally if he rips off of a gay rapper and sings about gay marriage. really. lady gaga has said many trans*phobic things?? even if shes for gay marriage thats terrible. fckh8 is so trans*phobic dont even get me started
 
It's great about Hawaii and I celebrate the achievement there. I'm more concerned about congress. A political group was able to change congressional rules so that only the speaker of the house can propose items for a vote. The current speaker is 'boner' and he's resolute in holding congress hostage. Only legislation that fits with his ideology is allowed to be voted on. Even tho it's likely the bill would pass, the Speaker will never bring it to the floor.

It's disturbing that the change in congressional proceedure is legal, it defeats the purpose of congress.

It would appear I'm a step behind the rest of the discussion. Sorry about that, the board didn't show me any posts after the Hawaii revive.

I didn't mean anything violent or extreme like that.

I mean change views on a large scale, have parents tell their kids that it's fine, show the world that there's nothing wrong with not being cisgender and/or heterosexual. We need to turn the whole 'anyone who isn't straight and cisgender is not normal and therefore, they are bad' ideal on its head. The reason people who aren't are still treated badly is because of those kind of people in the first place after all.

Also, the world, and the majority opinion is changing anyway.

Would you be upset if you were a heterosexual and you went to a "gay" beach with your bf and some homosexual men were checking out your bf? Because apparently it upset my friend and she posted a really ignorant and offensive fb post about it that attacked the entire gay community just because a few checked out her bf.
