it's completely irrelevant wether you find it gross or not. i think it's gross as well, but hey, whatever floats your boat.Apex wrote:

There's no way to prove the dog has consent over the marriage, so there's a reason why you can't marry your dog. Gay couples aren't vegetables and are consenting and willing to mutually get married. Plus, bringing up interspecies marriage is just like saying "HO HO I'M A PASTAFARIAN" (aka. Bringing up extremes to try to prove a point wrong), since I've never been wholly aware that people have been heavily desiring to engage in a fully commited LEGAL relationship with an animal in a huge ceremony plus legal responsibility and stuff (I know there's people who would want to have crazy sex with animals, but it's pointless to make that legal except for jokes.) With homosexual relationships, it's actually legitimate and not pastafarian-esque nonsense.BRBP wrote:

Can you people support me and my human rights the same way you support gays?
That'd be great, thanks.

Marriage is actually pretty religious, or at least the way it's done in America (Which I'm assuming is the context of this discussion). It's done in a religious house of workship done by a priest, many of the lines being read from the bible (1 Corinthians, I believe. I'm not entirely sure, but I know I did a seminar about it and it was in one of Paul's letter to the church that I'm pretty sure is Corinth.) It's not a religious act like taking communion or getting baptized, but it's heavily influence by religion. It's grown now away from religion, as people can be trained to perform ceremonies without being priests, it doesn't have to be done in a chapel, etc.
And I'm not even very studious on the marriage institution, so there's probably more that I'm not aware of (I teach 4th grade at church, not many of them care about the religious aspect of marriage, lol :3) that Lotus would be.
So don't be like "OMG WELL UR DUM" (Which I know it isn't what you said, but the tone of your statement pretty much read it as such) without making sure that you're write too :3.
Nyan.
Jup, you can get married without believing in god and this whole glory church wedding stuff in Germany too.silmarilen wrote:

i can't really say, to be perfectly honest. same way some people don't really like looking at spiders, i guess. i don't really find men aesthetically pleasing (including myself). psychologically speaking, the disgust/dislike reaction is something people don't really have much control over - seeing two dudes making out in public may elicit "ew gross" internally, but i'd probably do the same thing if i saw a really bogan heterosexual couple making out in public as well. honestly, it may be a better representation of my dislike of observing other people's physical intimacy than anything overtly related to anything else.Jarby wrote:

i'll be frank - i find it pretty gross, but that doesn't mean i hold any overt feeling towards people who don't deliberately shove the stuff in my face. denying them otherwise standard human rights is an absolute atrocity.
Your attitude itself doesn't bother me, but I hear a fair bit related to the concept that's problematic. One theory I have about this is how women are so overly sexualized in media compared to men; reversal of this trend is played for laughs, but male sexuality is far more tame when it is utilized. The Hawkeye Initiative (sort of nsfw) shows off this discrimination in comic books in a rather blatant way. Portrayal of heterosexual couples engaging in romantic and/or sexual shenanigans is far more likely to focus on the woman's body too of course.Ephemeral wrote:

my point is, apprehensions or otherwise, i don't let my base instincts dictate how i moderate complex social issues internally. a normally functioning human being would do the same thing.
This is the kind of stuff that easily makes the rest of your statement completely invalid, that can easily be avoided by a simple thought of "hm maybe I should sound more professional so I don't sound mad because then people will be less likely to support me."Liiraye wrote:

You don't need "rehab" on how to not sound so smug, you just need to think before you speak. You're obviously aware of it based on your statement, you just need to fix it.
The word I should have used was credible, not valid. Sorry about that :3.Liiraye wrote:

How does that small, completely unrelated, sarcastic remark invalidate my main statement?
Sure, it might've come off a bit rough from your personal point of view (it was ment to be an innocent joke so I honestly didn't imagine anyone taking offence from it). However, my statement is valid nonetheless.
You'll have to elaborate on that, assuming that it is not your intention to remain as the most ignorant asshat on earth.dkwon8715 wrote:

Taste and preference isn't something you're born with. Although you might have inherited traits and whatnot genes that could contribute to how you develop your tastes and preferences, I do firmly believe that it is ultimately decided by the circumstances under which you lead your life under, and to some degree also a choice. There are studies which show that circumstances such as having an older brother, in comparison to a sister or no siblings at all, more often leads to the younger being homosexual.sacchann wrote:
i'm a Muslim and yes i do know about the fact that it's actually a Sin in my religion. but my mum has ever said that God is fair (and yes i do believe that God is completely fair). how if the person was actually really born that way? you can't change it at all if it really is like that already from the first place because God made it that way at the first place. unless if (just like what MoonShade's friend said) it's a mental disease which makes him turn into a gay, we need to try to cure him no matter what instead of saying shits. but even so, again, i do believe that God is fair which also makes me believe in people's freedom of choosing their own path in their life and i do respect them no matter who they are.

Well, yeah, it just goes back to the idea of fetishizing and sexualizing women which is ironic in this case since lesbians aren't going to be having heterosexual sex anyway. But you can surely imagine my frustration that in this very thread people are outright saying that lesbians are "so fucking hot" but gays (albeit not specifically referring to men) are "fucking disgusting". This doesn't necessarily affect things like marriage equality directly, but there are obviously issues to come from making a person with an incompatible orientation to yours a sex object without delving further into matters like rape culture, body shaming and transphobia.Ephemeral wrote:
