Exactly it shouldn't matter what gender you are, because it's just a close friendship and whatever is done behind closed doors shouldn't matter to the outside world coz it's private! I bet there are loads of couples of all sexual orientations that are cellibate anyway and just choose to share their life with somebody.

As you said its just a close relationship, theres really nothing wrong with that, people can love exactly who they want.

Well I think that whatever you want to call it, marriage or unionship, there needs to be SOMETHING in place to protect the rights of a couple to BE TOGETHER. When two gay people fall in love, they - like straight couples - should be given the ability to live together without trouble.

ANYONE who disagrees with some kind of gay unionship, is TOTALLY MISSING THE POINT. If you want to be with someone for the rest of your life, you should have that right NO MATTER WHAT.

And as for the arguement regarding humans are meant to reproduce - well, whilst correct to a degree, you get a lot of people who reproduce, but do not want the offspring. Plenty of gay couples have proved that they can adopt a child, and raise it in a stable family enviroment.

So, that said, I am all for gay marriages. Live and let live.

I don't mind at all, however...........

gay couples shouldn't flaunt it in front of other people. EXAMPLE: I'm walking down the street, and sitting on a bench is too gay men getting off It's disgusting......

I don't want to see it, its alright if they do it out the way privately and not force it on other people.

(True story btw...........)

But the same could be said for straight couples. Personally, I do not want to see anyone tickling each others tonsils in public, as, whilst is shows passion, it also shows a lack of restraint.

So really, it is not confined to gay couples.

Also, over the years, I have learnt that most men do not mind if two women "go at it" together, as it seems to be a general fantasy.
Does this then not show how narrow minded and double standarded most men are, if they tolerate lesbian couples, but not homosexual?

I think gay marriage is fine, people who dont should learn to accept people for who they are and let people be conftable with who they like to be with. People are different, what they do together is between them and private, same with straight people. If 2 people love each other they should be able to be together whatever.

I find it uncomfortable watching people of any sexuality kissing/whatever in public, it's just not as common to see homosexual couples. You're probably more not used to it than disgusted by it.

Also when you see straight people getting off in public, would you say that the straight couple are forcing hetrosexuality on other people?

I agree with Gay marriage so what if a man loves another man, it doesn't matter, though some people would not take this opinion properly due to me being an atheist
i don't care about this anyone can do what they feel like as long as its not hurting anyones feelings.

This topic has been bumped two months after the last post! I'm going to keep it open though because I think this topic can create good discussion as it's a controversial issue. If other mods disagree and want to close it though I don't mind.
