Re-opening Old Debates

Oct 02, 2007 20:50

Yeah, its what I currently have a penchant for... one debate in particular, in fact, if I could find someone fun to debate it with, and my old sources for previous iterations... gay marriage and religious "marriage"... gods, I miss debating that. So long since I last did!

hmmmm. Ok then.

So long as we keep it nice and not attacking in nature, and also if we keep it to the point. No getting lost by trivial side points or being bogged down by semantics. If a valid question on a side point comes up (And I already anticipate a "Validity of the Bible" question), then we should make a new comment with a separate heading and discuss that, before we then return to the original subject that we're discussing.

How about that? Does that sound like a deal?

It does to me, definitely so.

Ok. Firstly, are we talking about gay marriage vs. straight marriage? Or are we talking about "a religous aspect to marriage" and whether it should/shouldn't be there? (Or, if you don't believe that there is one, debating is there/isn't there?) OR, since you evidently believe in gay marriage (as opposed to civil partnerships :-p), is this discussing how a religious element fits into that? (A same sex union, whatever you want to call it ( ... )

(Sorry, too long!)

Now, normally when you turn your back on someone, it's a rejection, it is, in however small a way, trying to put that person out of your life. To see someone's back shows that they are being defensive, and it wouldn't be pleasant to approach someone who's back is (deliberately) turned away from you either because it then also puts the approaching person in the mood for a fight. But yet, gay sex brings this attitude into your most intimate relationships with another person, and I personally cannot see how it won't be a headf**k. And I have been there. Before we go into it in any further detail, I do want to say that having sex (of any description, I'm putting it all together) is a decision that I regret very deeply and probably always will. But, seeing as how I have, that does mean that I have the right to speak about it. We tried doing anal sex one time. I say tried, because we didn't get very far. Mostly only to the turning over stage. And. I. Hated. It. It was not being face to face, and not being ( ... )
