1) Being gay is not natural. Real Americans always reject unnatural
things like eyeglasses, polyester, and air conditioning.
2) Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay, in the same way that
hanging around tall people will make you tall.
3) Gay marriage will change the foundation of society; we could never
adapt to new social norms. Just like we haven't adapted to cars, the
service-sector economy, or longer life spans.
4) Straight marriage has been around a long time and hasn't changed at
all; women are still property, blacks still can't marry whites, and
divorce is still illegal.
5) Straight marriage will be less meaningful if gay marriage were
allowed; the sanctity of Brittany Spears' 55-hour just-for-fun marriage
would be destroyed.
6) Straight marriages are valid because they produce children. Gay
couples, infertile couples, and old people shouldn't be allowed to
marry because our orphanages aren't full yet, and the world needs more
children.
7) Obviously gay parents will raise gay children, since straight
parents only raise straight children.
8) Gay marriage is not supported by religion. In a theocracy like ours,
the values of one religion are imposed on the entire country. That's
why we have only one religion in America.
9) Children can never succeed without a male and a female role model at
home. That's why we as a society expressly forbid single parents to
raise children.
10) Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy
behavior. People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has
legal standing and can sign a marriage contract.
One of the saddest parts about our society is that...these arguments,
before the humourous common sense, are the real reasons why people
can't accept gay marriages.
and they always go "straight"(haha) to No.10...which, funnily enough to
me, is probably the last thing a gay couple is thinking about...while
the "straight people," who are arguing against gay marriage, seem to be
all over it. how interesting.
Repost this for a laugh, especially if you agree that homosexual
marriages should be recognized just the same as hetersexual ones.
