And I'd generally speak for myself when evaluating the role of women in society. In our society, women have worked and have gone to war with men.
But never ever have we allowed such ridiculous ideas like allowing homosexuals to resurface and get married throughout our 2000 years of history. Meaning, there are some norms around the earth, that do not change.
Like for example, not sleeping with your close relatives, that is a norm and a taboo in most societies, yes? Let's move beyond that one?
IF you are going to challenge one norm, challenge each and everyone of them, limitless one!
I think that this blind devotion you people have to this cause causes you to speak of things that really makes no sense.
Rainbow crusaders, a fitting name.
Incest is a completely different issue. It actually HAS consequences. Each norm is an independent issue. There's no rule that says you need to challenge all of them if you want to change one.
I don't make sense? You're the one who thinks it's right to abort babies who might turn out to be gay. THAT makes no sense.
