Ofcourse. That is why they want equality. They want it for the attention it will bring them. Certainly not because they're human. Certainly not that.

I don't understand your need to rag on sexual orientation, but hey.

[QUOTE=narbeZ;2392811]Whether you like it or not, these common values and stories have been shared and passed down from family's and churches for thousands of years.[/quotes]

And they offend me. Please don't practice them in a public place.

No, progressively not raging pricks would be more accurate. It's called "Not fanatical".

Hmm... I like where this is going. "I think they should be allowed... but here's why I think they shouldn't be allowed."

Then they'd me like most young couples. Happy to shove their tongues down eachother's throats with not cares of how strange they look to those around them. Same thing if they were male. OH NOES! TWO DUDES MAKING OUT! I've made out with other guys. I've seen other guys make out. If it still offends you, well, avoid public at all cost. Gay people are everywhere, and yes, they do PDA.

Or... they can't? Cause they're not straight? And haven't identified as straight in some time?

So do most bible thumpers flipping **** over a couple of people of the same sex swapping spit. The only difference is one is an equality issue the other is a "Being a bigot but having it justified by a 2000 year old fairy tale so I'm not a bigot" issue.

Or because "It had been an issue in the past and they wanted to be open about their plans." like it says in the article.

And then been kicked out when they gave eachother an affectionate peck or held hands? Yeah, that'd be a great prom night. I'd be so pleased to get kicked out for wanting to be affectionate to my date.

It's not an "event." You're essentially telling everyone you know and love, "Listen, I am not the norm and I still want you to care about me."

Your neandrathalic post is proof that it is necessary for people to make the decision to come out carefully, because I'm pretty sure you'd kick your kids out if they did to you, and other people have the same fear.

She's not making a big deal about coming out. She's making a big deal about being treated unfairly and unequally from other people because of her sexual orientation. As far as I'm concerned that's a pretty good reason to say, "Hey, that's not cool." and be pretty pissed.
