re: State to Eliminate “Bride” & “Groom” on Marriage Certificates [W:303]

What is changing except two lines on a government form?
Are you offended when a form has a line for spouse?
 
re: State to Eliminate “Bride” & “Groom” on Marriage Certificates [W:303]

Only what you're legally called

is that in fact what they are doing?
seems the are just simplifying the form to me

legally there will still be husbands and wifes etc in Washington, no?

You'll have to point out where that is in Marx's writings. In most places that had a Marxist government, homosexuality got you sent to prison.

Or do you just call everything you don't like "Marxist?"

This will be the last time I engage you in this thread. The goal of the Frankfurt School of Fabian Socialists/Collectivists/Marxists is quite clear and well documented. Whether you choose to believe the data or not is not my problem. Hell maybe you agree with it. Wouldn't surprise me.

Why would he change his name? You realize there is a difference between a descriptive term and a name, right?
Did your sarcasm detector get inadvertently turned off?


How could the old terms be accommodated? There is no clear equivalent to husband, wife, bride or groom in most gay couples.
In terminology, no. In how roles shake out, it's surprising how, more often than not, even in gay couples, traditional stereotypical gender roles still unfold as they do with heterosexual couples. There still usually ends up being a "husband" and a "wife".
 
re: State to Eliminate “Bride” & “Groom” on Marriage Certificates [W:303]

You just woke up in the lap of a liberal if you think gay is normal.

oh good lord normal abnormal is very subjective

question is left handed normal?

My stupid meter pegged though.


Not so much. Of course this is more and more true in straight marriages as well. Susy, barefoot, pregnant and in the kitchen with Joe out earning the money is an outdated paradigm. One of my favorite couples the woman will be out working on the car while the husband is in watching the kids.

I really don't put much stock in what a Conservative commentator said about Communism 50 years ago. Is he a Communist? Or just a guy who thought he knew everything.

BTW, was Richard Nixon a Communist?

7. Grant recognition of Red China. Admission of Red China to the U.N.

After all, he's the President who extended diplomatic recognition of the Communist government of China.

how does it take away?

Because an option that was there before, that some people liked, will no longer be there?
 
re: State to Eliminate “Bride” & “Groom” on Marriage Certificates [W:303]

The OP was about making straight people stop being called bride and groom, that is dissing them.

false

LMAO where did that "option" go? its still there :shrug:
you still can call yourself what ever you want, they simplified the "form" not made it illegal to call yourself whatever you want lol
 
re: State to Eliminate “Bride” & “Groom” on Marriage Certificates [W:303]

That's not dissing anyone, that's making a form more universal.

nothing in the OP says that, it says the form was simplified.

its nonsense to think otherwise
 
re: State to Eliminate “Bride” & “Groom” on Marriage Certificates [W:303]

Because I mock silly things. Your opinion is not based on any facts; it's solely based on your emotion of basically not liking it.

Projection noted

I refuted this: it's also an entrance. It's not just about pleasure. Sex is also a way to show the feeling of love. Homosexuals can feel love, just as heterosexual couples do.

Um no you did not. You tried to but were refuted by someone who actually agrees with you. A child cannot be conceived by 2 men through anal sex. A woman cannot get pregnant through anal sex. This is basic science. And you're accusing me of stating silly things?

... because you need evidence that there is a mental disorder there. There was none. The idea that it was a mental order was not accepted by those practitioners and they overturned it. The belief homosexuality is a mental disorder is archaic.

There is evidence. It's called the DSM criteria. It was removed for most likely political reasons. Not scientific. There also was not a 100% universal opinion by psychologists at the time to remove it. Only 55%. I understand in 2012 you've been programmed to believe differently by Culture, Academia, Hollywood, and whatever cool and hip trendy show is playing on the alphabet networks. Doesn't mean you are correct however.

You can question them. You are not questioning them. You, a heterosexual man, are telling them they have a mental disorder. There's a difference.

The DSM criteria is what labeled Homosexuality a mental disorder before it was changed for most likely political reasons. I merely stated it was definitely a possibility that homosexuality is a mental disorder, even though it was removed from the DSM criteria for probably political reasons. Your assumption, and the assumption of everyone on the left who engages in their 2012 Culture Group think, is that every scientific decision that was made pre far left Collectivism/Cultural Marxism was motivated by hatred or bigotry. What if you were lied to?

Besides, if Homosexuals could claim they were "disabled" for being gay they could receive some additional stimulus from Obama's stash. They would probably qualify for multiple social and welfare programs where they can get hand outs courtesy of Obama's borrowed/taxed/printed money. Why would you want to deprive them of potentially life saving benefits?

See: Cry! Cry! Cry! by Johnny Cash. Poor baby.

Mocking and humiliation tactic noted, since you are intellectually unable to have a real discussion

Nope. I only call those people stupid who appear as such. I don't base anything off emotional arguments. You, however, seem to be.

Calling people stupid isn't an argument. Like I said before feel free to do that if it makes you feel better.

I'm not leaning on anyone.

Of course you are because intellectually you are weak

Good.

Show me it on the form then.

doesnt have to be there

i filled out a job applications that said "white, african american, Latino, Asain, pacific islander and it said you must only pick ONE.

does that mean i dont exsist? or I cant call myself what i am? OF COURSE NOT because that would make no logical sense whatsoever
 
re: State to Eliminate “Bride” & “Groom” on Marriage Certificates [W:303]

Dodge noted

What dodge? Is that just what you say when you're discredited?

Your own link identifies the author of this book as "faith-based." Why would I take his word for what is and isn't Marxist? I challenged you to find it in Marx, and presented to you that gays are imprisoned in Marxist countries. You came back with that crap, and then say I'm dodging?
 
re: State to Eliminate “Bride” & “Groom” on Marriage Certificates [W:303]


More heterosexual people have anal sex than LGBT people, what of them?

Seriously dude, your so wrong it's embarrassing.
 
re: State to Eliminate “Bride” & “Groom” on Marriage Certificates [W:303]

oh good lord normal abnormal is very subjective

question is left handed normal?
Define "normal". Left-handedness is not "normal" in the sense that it is a minority of the population. The "norm" is to be right-handed, and as thus left-handers are not part of the "norm".

Too many people, though, have come to include, consciously or subconsciously, equating 'normal' as 'weird' or 'wrong', which is wholly incorrect. Left-handedness is abnormal in that it is not the majority, but that doesn't mean there is anything wrong with it.



There will always be exceptions, of course, in both gay and straight couples. But, they are just that, exceptions, not the general rule itself.

You are seeing it more and more in straight couples, though, as it is becoming more socially accepted for the exceptions to exist openly. Forty years ago societal peer pressure would have precluded many men from staying home as "house husbands". Today, not so much.

Will we ever reach a point where traditional gender roles are split roughly 50/50? I don't think so. I think nature plays its predominate role in this regard. The social progress that we will make will be in accepting those who don't neatly fit the stereotype.

Do you remember when you went LMAO, laughing like a deranged loon?

You said it was still there then.

Guess you were wrong & just laughing like a fool for nothing...

It changes the entire definition of marriage for everyone getting married ...to accomodate a handful of I want what I want when I want and you HAVE to do what I wants...its garbage
 
re: State to Eliminate “Bride” & “Groom” on Marriage Certificates [W:303]

More heterosexual people have anal sex than LGBT people, what of them?
Is this another one of those things where statistics are misleading depending on how they're used?

"More" people? Percentage-wise, or raw numbers-wise? If percentage, that'd be a great stat. If raw numbers, well... duh!... heterosexuals vastly outnumber homosexuals to begin with, so it makes perfect sense that more would engage in anal sex.

Not unlike pointing out that more white people collect welfare, but a much higher percentage of black people collect welfare. The same stats can be carefully chosen to portray whatever you want them to portray, hence do they really portray anything?

I do wonder how anybody knows, this, btw. :2razz:
