Think before you post.
In fact, if you want to get a bit creative, you could argue that homosexuality is even less about sex than heterosexuality, because homosexuals and heterosexuals have sex for all the same reasons- except homosexuals don't have sex to get pregnant and spawn ankle-biters.
--Edit- Not that that matters at all. I think people should be able to marry for any reason, and/or have as much sex as they want without ever getting married. The above argument is simply a response to homophobes' arguments. In my opinion, it's irrelevant how much a marriage is about sex or lack thereof.

The problem is they aren't searching for equal rights, but instead want SPECIAL rights. SPECIAL rights to marry the same gender. So, why do the SPECIAL rights have to stop there? If a person loves their pet can they petition the special right to marry the animal as well? Why not, it makes him happy and his pet loves him back. Also what is to stop a 30 yr. old male from marrying a 5 yr. old child? If the parents consent it should be fine right? WRONG.
Same gender marriage, man and animal marriage, adult and child marriages are happening already in other countries. These 3 situations are all in the same category of unnatural, disgusting and detrimental to society. They are all looking for SPECIAL RIGHTS. thoughts???
Unnatural, disgusting, detrimental to society. . .
I'll let disgusting go, because that's just a baseless opinion.
Why is it unnatural? Hundreds of species of animals have homosexuality. Only one has homophobes. So you're more unnatural than homosexuals. (Edit--Not that whether something is natural or not even matters, lol.) It says in the bible to kill homosexuals, but it also says to kill children who talk back to their parents. I assume, if you support killing homosexuals, you didn't talk back to your parents when they told you to finish your homework for primary school last night?
Detrimental to society- What do you mean? This point is so bigoted and laughably vague that I can't even respond to it the way it is now.
What falls away is always, and is near.
Also, I am not pretending to be female, this profile picture is my wonderful girlfriend. XD
