HOW DOES EVERYONE FEEL ABOUT SAME SEX MARRIGE?? ICE BREAKER

[Mona88]

I believe that every1 is free to do whatever they want as long as no1 is getting hurt or hurting any1. Same sex marriage is fine cuz u cant make ppl love something they dont & if thts wat makes them happy than let it be. just like how other religions forbid different race marriage but it still happens and they live happy 4ever, all ppl are the same.
it is wrong to judge ppl.
all ppl have HEARTS, FEELINGS

I've always been open minded to same sex unions.  I see no problem at all with it.  Whether eHarmony offers that service or not, though, is just a stupid point.  If that's a problem, then I want to be able to go to a gay dating website and look up opposite sexes!  What's the difference??  People are just sue happy. 

[yllek454]

people should be able to love and marry whoever they choose to spend their life with. and if it just so happens that they are of the same sex.... who cares! there's nothing wrong with that. and who are these people to tell them that its wrong to be gay.

[jneff0603]

Absolutely in favor of it...no one has the right to tell someone who they can love. Would you let someone tell you that the man (or woman) you love can't be your spouse? It's ridiculous! People cry that it makes a mockery of marriage? So does infidelity, spousal abuse, neglect, prenuptial agreements, and divorce!

As long as they aren't rubbing it in peoples faces, I'm fine with it.

So two gay guys are allowed to get married, but if they EXPRESS THEIR LOVE in public by holding hands or making out, *you're* not cool with that?  Sorry, we'll have to outlaw PDA for everyone, then, gay or straight.

Things like that are fine with me, but if they start being flamboyant about it is when it starts to bug me.

I think this is just an opinion that's not harmful to any group. I could say the same about people who brag, boast, and show off something that I'm really not into. I'm not against it...but I do get this weird vibe in the back of my mind that annoys me.

SuperWeeGee...love the name.

First, Falconer-I LOVE that pic LOL!!!!  Too funny
Second, ANY PDA is kind of excessive to me!  It's ok for the holding hands thing while walking down the street or a hug occasionally or whatever, but when people are making out and getting overly into it, all I can say is GET A ROOM!  Doesn't matter if your straight, bi, gay, or whatever else people have made up as labels now. 

[rsbese889]

I will admit I'm a bit of a hypocrite I'm okay with lesbians and gays, but I believe that marriage should only be left to opposing genders.

So people acting in love must be banished out of sight of the public?  Can you prove that such an act is truly having a negative effect on everyone else's lives?  If not, you have no right to say anything to them.

[queenofnines]

Let's all have sex in public, the animals do and they see nothing wrong with it, when you want it you want it, just expression of love.

Heh, what is up with people who like to jump to extremes?!  Although objectively, I personally would not be offended if you WERE having sex in public (I probably would just not want to see your ugly body parts, but I could get over it.  People affront others with their wobbly bits all the time even WITH clothes on if they don't choose the right ones.  Think Wal-mart).  I think it ultimately goes back to we keep our "private parts" private due to things like rape.

[queenofnines]

You have to look at your ugly body parts everyday. I have to say you are very screwed up in the head. The body is beautiful. Some people are just perverted and that's why they think the naked body is bad. Genitalia is no different than an arm or leg.

Je-sus, marieelissa, you sure love labeling and judging people at the drop of a hat.  I'm very screwed up in the head because I think people who don't take care of themselves (in the case of obesity) are unattractive?  Well me and pretty much everyone who is not obese (or IS overweight and does not want to be) are screwed up then.  I never said anything about genitalia.  I am actually one of the few in this country who think it is wrong to circumcise baby boys, whereas one of the top arguments FOR circumcision is that natural penises are ugly.

You just get off on calling people names.  Grow up!

It really depends on the situation. I mean if a couple is making out in the parking lot of a mall, I doubt anyone will mind. But there are situations where it is causing disruptions. I once had a couple in one of my computer-lab classes make out. It had to be distracting to the people around them because it's taking their concentration off of their work-- after class I heard them talking about it ("wtf was up with that?" "Yeah I know!"). Also there was that one Seinfeld episode where Jerry makes out with some girl while watching Schindler's List. HA!

I would go to say this is on par with talking loudly on your cellphone in a library or anything like that though. It's not strictly due to some prude norm-- it's just distracting because it's so noticeable.

[queenofnines]

Yeah, I agree.  If it is having a negative effect on peoples' studies, that would be a justifiable reason to object.  I was talking more along the lines of "if it makes me uncomfortable it should not be allowed, ever!".  If that is the only reason, it's not a very good one.
