Dear bigots - the reason same sex marriage will NEVER EVER lead to beastiality, or acceptance of paedophilia is because they're NOT THE SAME THING.
For one thing, two adults, unlike children, or animals, are able to consent, and don't need "protection"

Cool story time... la_sabre February 14 2011, 18:58:00 UTC
A few years ago we had a sake-sex marriage ban amendment on the ballot in my state. My friend told me that the Young Conservative group at her school was protesting marriage equality by having members "marry" trees, benches, statues, dogs, etc. Because that is ~exactly~ what marriage equality will lead to.

Well, on the plus side, this bigoted old arsetrumpet makes my mother's views look nuanced, well-thought out and practically acceptable by comparison?

Seriously, Melanie Phillips, shut the fuck up, sit the fuck down and GO THE FUCK AWAY.

Yes, yes it is. :D She fights aliens in a pretty dress and uses a sparkly handbug to steady her gun; I was the kind of little girl who used Polly Pocket to pretend to fight bad guys and save the world, and I haven't got any less girly since, so I might identify slightly. XD

Wah wah wah I'm threatened by people who don't give a shit about me, blah blah
PLAY A NEW RECORD MELANIE

Also wtf at this:
Further down, she argues: “The sole reason marriage has universal value is that it is vital for the healthy nurture of the next generation. This is because children need to be brought up by the two people who created them.”
So...those of us who lost a parent; we...weren't brought up properly? Our remaining parent failed? Anybody who adopts cannot be a decent parent because they didn't create the child? What the actual fuck.

Social conservatives hate single/divorced parents. I'm shocked that she hated on adoption because they usually don't.

They only care about adoption when it refers to poor white teen girls that give birth to perfectly healthy white babies that can be put with good white people. Those dusty heathens on the other hand....
