On a lighter note: Let them eat cake...

[matgb]

Great A'Tuin wedding cake? Yes please... (via here and here).

Also? There's a meme going around. Quote some bloke, declare you believe in gay rights, if you don't, you're probably a closet homophobe, etc. It's a great quote, but lithium_doll gives better from the same guy:

Words mean nothing. Action is the only thing. Doing. That's the only thing.

- Ernest Gaines

Do I believe in gay rights? No, I believe in equal rights. Complete equality before the law. What I chose to do with my partner(s) of choice, you have the right to do with yours. Or at least, you should do. I don't care what gender you prefer to sleep with, really. Gay marriage? How about we abolish marriage as a civil institution (religious types can keep it), and replace the legal aspects with bespoke contracts and partnerships that suit the individual(s)? Why are only couples who sleep together given legal status?

Meh, this was supposed to be a jokey post. But still, if'n you think I need to "prove" my dislike of bigotry, you may want to pay a little bit of attention to the contents of my friends list, n'est ce pas?

You know.. you haeinteresting ideas about marriage. I don't know why i never once considered the fact that the governmen doens't need to be in my marriage. That's silly. It's a religious or spiritual union, and not a governmental thing. Doh. No wonder they don't last anymore.

Do I believe in gay rights?

Pffft. They have the same rights as any person. They can marry a woman, just as God intended. They want special rights to marry men, and there's no need for people to do that, so why should we pass special legislation just for a few perverts faggots benders?

Yours,

Disgruntled

P.S. What kind of society do we live in where the police can support Mr Gay UK? I don't think we should have faggots like that benders that kind of person in the police. It's just not natural.

... being as one of the things I do when I'm bored is go to your journal and click on random tags if I think they look interesting, and I have probably read about 50% of your journal now, I don't think you're the one who's being stalkery ;)
