Where did I say that? I'm pretty sure I said the exact opposite of that a few pages back.

I'm all for polygamy among consenting adults, but that's really not the topic of the thread.

eh, well it is and it isn't. it's about changing the definition of marriage and who is allowed to. i think that if same sex couples can get married, multiple people should be able to as well. i also think that if there is any combination of adults who are committed to each other for life, they should be able to join the marriage deal too, regardless of whether their relationship is sexual/romantic, or platonic/friendship/familial love.

Things were so much simpler back in the day. Don't like the way marriage and divorce is governed? Then change it.




Great thread btw. tongue

I am confused as to why you think gay marriage shouldn't be allowed, since you are now saying you think anybody should be able to get married. Seems a little contradictory to me.

Polygamy has been around forever, so is that really changing the definition of marriage?

as i said, if gay, then everybody. then i feel it's fair. i also tend to be lazy-minded, so my first instincts are just to say: thinking confused "awww it's so much less complicated legally to just leave it the way it is". yeah, i know, that's pretty cruel of me.

legally, i guess, since i think it's still illegal in california and other states

also-- since it's changing, i think too it's unfair to have to base it on a sexual relationship

Well aren't we lucky that the people in charge don't think that way, since if everyone had an all or nothing attitude, nothing would ever get done.

Or all would get done, depending.

I very highly doubt that anything could be found that satisfied all requirements of everyone all at once.

Doesn't it? Having an ability to create life isn't a big deal? And a big responsibility?


Any idiot can get pregnant. The ability to create life doesn't make one superior to anybody.

The ability to raise a child in a stable and healthy environment is what's important.
