To this day, I have no idea how anyone else's marriage can possibly affect yours.

[per_solo]

The only way it affects mine is that I'm not getting one until everyone who is a friend of mine can. And if I'm waiting a long time, then so be it.

As to how it "subverts" straight marriage..with the divorce rates, incidence of cheating, and other examples...straights don't exactly need help.

Total agreement with you.

Tom,

I know. As a member of the GLBT community and the proud wife of a US Soldier, this hurts me in ways that is hard to put into words. I live in Indiana and I know that if this does make it through to the governor of this state and that governor signs it, I know that I will leave to a state where I can be free to love and marry who I believe God has chosen for me.

I am so lucky to have friends like per_solo. They are the reason I continue to fight.

It does have to pass another legislative session and then it goes on the ballot for the voters to decide. Frankly I hope it doesn't get that far. The last time this issue passed both the house and senate, it never passed through the second time.

It affects all of us.

It's tough to have faith in the democratic process in a place where people decide that you aren't really a person if you don't believe precisely what they do.

That said, faith may make many a folk feel all shiny and happy, but I prefer to put my eggs in the basket of "I'm making some fucking noise, goddammit."

LOL, it definitely is. Albeit I do have to say that I completely understand the discouragement.

I've just got a nasty habit of fighting through it harder.
