Copy this sentence into your livejournal if you're in a heterosexual marriage/relationship (or if you think you might be someday), and you don't want it "protected" by the bigots who think that gay marriage hurts it somehow.
I really don't see why gays getting married should be a problem. It's not like it has some strange cosmic effect that makes heterosexuals get divorced!
We've recently given them the right to have civil unions, which as far as I understand it gives them basically the same rights as a married couple. Why not go the whole hog? I understand the arguement that marriage is a religious thingy, but I don't agree with it. After all I'm not religious and I can still get married.
