We married because he was diagnosed with HIV in 1991, and he didn't want his crazy Catholic parents to have any say over what happened to him. He was a victim of rape by a priest when he was 9 years old, and didn't want his funeral in a Catholic church, which is where his mother THOUGHT she was having it, until I pulled out the marriage license, and proved her ass wrong. I let his partner of 17 years plan everything, which is how it should've been in the first damn place. Why should she have any say over anything? She protected and defended the priest who raped her 9 year old son! Oh! And she was against gay marriage, so screw her double!
Love is where you find it..Yes?? And why should YOU be denied the legal rights of married couples just because you are homosexual?? This one reason (perhaps THE most important reason) as to why I think gays/lesbians should be able to marry and have the same rights as heterosexual couples in a court of law.
