How the heck did you stay so rational in your arguments when faced with all...that? The whole procreation argument makes me twitch. "Producing" children is easy (it was for us, at least, but I know that's not always the case). But even if it was easy for everyone, they'd still have to raise them, and that is the hard part, and it really doesn't matter if you're homosexual or heterosexual or bisexual or... Geez.
I really liked this that you said, btw:
The responsibility of marriage is in committing yourself to another person, in loving and caring for and respecting them even when times are hard, even when you are furious with them. The responsibility is in choosing to spend your life supporting them, letting them support you, and working together even when it feels impossible. That is the responsibility you take on when you say "I do,"Because, yes. Will and I wanted kids when we got married, but we didn't get married because we wanted kids, we got married because we love(d) each other and wanted to do everything we could ( ... )
