we had a guest lecturer in psych of human sexuality today. She is a staff member here at the school and she happens to be a lesbian. Her lecture today was about sexuality and how society has made sexuality an issue

i HATE when they say that same-sex marriages are going to destroy the institution of marriage. sure. two men in california getting married is going to ruin some straight couple's marriage in new jersey.

also, the 'sanctity of marriage' doesn't exist in the US anyway. more than half of all marriages end in divorce, and you can get drunk in las vegas and get married to someone you've never met. that's more okay than gay people getting married? what the fuck is that?

like a girl in class brought up today; if the word marriage "means" a man and a woman MAKE UP A NEW WORD THEN that can be used for a same sex marriage. its all a matter of CIVIL FUCKING RIGHTS not vocabulary!

oh and the sanctity thing, omg for real!!! The ideals of these fucking politicians baffle me beyond belief. do they really think that their constituents and the people of America feel the same idiotic way they do? They conviently seem to forget the real facts and lifestyles of human beings today.

i think the thing is this. powerful white christian straight men are in charge of everything. and they're like, "let's STAY in charge of everything. that will benefit us the most. let's do whatever it takes." then gay activist groups, feminist groups, anti-racism groups, etc., all protest, and the white men are like "but... but... i don't get it! you guys don't matter, right? just us? okay, that's what i thought. right, let's keep going this way. they'll quiet down eventually." it's not that they think they ARE giving rights to people, or that they feel the economy is balanced - they have a sense of entitlement that THEY deserve the best and other people who aren't like them are fucking it up, so they don't matter

yeah, this issue will probably be like all the past similar ones of slavery, sufferage and interracial marriage.... i guess all it needs is a few decades and some social evolution.

My question is, what the fuck ever happened to separation of church and state? Bush is a fucking idiot, and I'm sick of hearing him spouting crap about how it's God's will that gay marriage be banned in the US. Since when did he become the spokesman for God? He's trying to control something he has no control over. There's nothing more aggravating than closed minded people.
