Personally i dont think it matters.. a person is a person... sexuality isnt who they are... its how they express themselves.. its like straight people sayign to people when they meet them for the first time " hey im not gay".. i think sexuality isnt the first hting that defines people....,  |

*shrugs* my whole opinion of 'gay marriages' is if it floats your boat....WE have no right to butt in and tell them who they can and CAN'T love....what goes on behind closed doors and in the bedroom is only our business if we're involved. so yeah....it doesn't bother me....  |

Well I'm not gay myself. But I look at it this way if you find someone that will be there for you no matter what and you love each other I see nothing wrong with it at all. Back to your original question The States probably will approve of it someday. Creech  |

I really don't think it matters, whether homosexual or not, everyone deserves the same rights. Their sexual desires are the only thing different.

i think it's a good thing.. why not let them get married... it's not just a straight ritual... gay and lesbians dream of getting married too...they should be allowed to have similar unions what are recignized by the goverment...heck we have people who have been together 2 months get married why not let the couple who has been together 5 years get married and it be legal  |

My reaction is....ummmm so? All marriage is is a symbolic ritual for two people to make an outward committment to one another. So it should be logical than any two people can do that. Not only that but when two people are only living together and not married there are financial and economic ramifications that are difficult to deal with legally when/if the couple splits up. Good for Canada for being higher minded.  |

I'm laughing so hard, especially at those who mention 'the other side.' There is no huge anti-gay movement - it's all in your heads. Just the opposite is happening, and any self-respecting female should see the huge downfal their gender faces as homosexuality proliferates. Look at this post. Only 2 people ventured to oppose this, and then very timidly. Og may have attempted an opposition, and unfortunately what he says is true - pedophilia is the next perversion in line to be accepted by you, the immoral, rotting core of society which makes up 85% of the population. Don't think it won't happen. And don't think they won't word it so deliciously that you will support it.  |

Now that men can marry men, and women can marry women, when can we marry children? Or animals? I mean, married life isn't just for those able to have kids - is it? As long as you love your spouse, why should gender, race, age, or species make a difference? |

I must be living under a rock. I never even heard that and I live in Ontario. I think it would be okay if it was legalized. If two people want to marry each other, they should be able to do so. Personally, I wouldn't want to marry a woman. If ever I get married, it will be to a man.  |

LMAO@Vertigos. Children have already been given to marriage. At a time in history when the average life expectancy was much lower GIRLS were married at such ridiculous ages such as 12-years-old. To compare homosexuality to pedophilia is interesting. Both are not the product of choices, but are just a part of who the individual is. Homosexuality, however, is a consentual agreement between two members of the same sex who feel an attraction to each other in the same fashion as a heterosexual. Pedophiles can be both homosexual and/or heterosexual. So you can't really compare pedophilia and homosexuality as pedophiles can be both gay and/or straight but a homosexual cannot be straight(bisexual is close but not really). The utter disregard for homosexual persons shows a mind that has been shut-off from the rest of the planet and is the product of some la-la land fantasy that refuses to accept a reality other than its own. Like I said, " a person who is gay because GOD made them that way and has no control over the matter will surely make it to heaven before someone who makes a concious decision not to love and accept and respect his/her peers"... |

That's odd, Og. According to the research by Michael Bailey, assistant professor of psychology at Northwestern University and Richard Pillar, associate professor of psychiatry at Boston University School of Medicine, 'male sexual orientation is substantially genetic'. Another study took place to look at possible differences between the inner ear structures of both lesbians and heterosexual women. Women have more sensitive hearing than men. However, it was concluded that the inner ear structure of lesbians was closer to that of a man than of a woman. The inner ear forms before birth. Almost all children raised in households headed by two gay men or two gay women grew up heterosexual. So how valid is the argument that parenting contributes to homosexuality? Homosexuals do not appear to be more or less common in those societies which condemn and suppress homosexuals. So how is it learned from the environment? A little more homework and a little less personal opinion, people... |

I think it is great, I hope the U.S. follows their lead. MARRIAGE is NOT just for "producing" children. MARRIAGE is about love between two people. If a MAN and a WOMAN is past child bearing years and they fall in love shouldn't they be able to get married???? Or if a young couple finds out one of them is infertile, but they are in love and want to marry, shouldn't they be able to???? Marriage is not just for "procreation". Marriage is about love, JMNSHO............  |

I'd like to address the latest buzz-phrase floating around USM: "a person who is gay because GOD made them that way and has no control over the matter will surely make it to heaven before someone who makes a concious decision not to love and accept and respect his/her peers." Sniff. Does this mean that a person who has a murderous temper because they were born that way is far more likely to get into heaven than those who make a conscious decision not to live out their in-born shortcomings? It's also very funny that you say "GOD made them that way," while your belief in God is irrelevant because hey, you're trying to make a point. |

Also, Tarheel Girl and I assumed you were referring to rape when you compared homosexuality to pedohpilia and beastiality - simply because there is no such thing as a consenting child or beast. The two can be made to SUBMIT, but neither seeks to have intercourse with an adult or with a human, respecitively. This is the key difference. |

And laslty, Vert, your sarcastic reply to Gally's very informative comment on the inner ear structure of lesbians proves nothing but your inability to defend your position. She was stating that certain qualities of the inner ear - qualities determined before birth - are present in lesbians and using that fact as evidence that sexual orientation is predetermined; she was not citing inner ear structure as the cause of homosexuality, as you so tactfully misinterpreted. The fact that you refuse to seriously address evidence against your beliefs leads me to believe that debating with you is a massive waste of time. |
