Sorry, I tried to delete and move this thread when I realized that it was in the wrong place, but I am 'not authorized' to do so.
If one of the moderators could move it to general off topic, that would be great.

New Study Jolts White House
The Bush White House’s plan to push for a constitutional amendment banning gay marriages suffered a surprising setback today as a new study revealed that well over seventy percent of existing marriages may already be gay.
The study, conducted by Dr. Charles Cranborn of the University of Minnesota, confirmed what many social scientists have long suspected: that within the first five years of marriages, most men become, for all intents and purposes, gay.
“Soon after marrying, most men stop hitting on women and start shopping for furniture,” Dr. Cranborn said. “Scientifically speaking, how gay is that?”
Within ten years of marriage, Dr. Cranborn added, a significant number of married men stop having sex with women altogether.
“There’s only one way to describe someone who does not have sex with women, does not hit on women, and spends his free time shopping for furniture,” Dr. Cranborn added. “That word, to be scientific about it, is gay.”
When news of the University of Minnesota study hit Washington, the White House immediately abandoned its plans for a constitutional amendment banning gay marriage for fear of alienating the seventy percent of married voters who are already in a gay marriage “whether they know it or not,” to quote Dr. Cranborn.
Instead, the Administration will ask Congress for over 1.2 billion dollars in funds to promote gay divorces.
According to those familiar with the Bush proposal, gay couples who come forward and ask for a divorce will be granted total amnesty, a dividend tax cut, and a major reconstruction project in Iraq. |

Is it true that some of these fags are against this marriage thing.
From a financial point of view, after a few years of corn-holing, if they decide to breakup, they simple go their own way.
Now, with marriage, they can take legal action and fight for the house, car, etc. just like a husband & wife would.
What's your take on this LL, alot of money to be made here in the future.

Yo, Paisan, easy on the vitriol!
Many gay/les couples get married b/c they want to have families and provide the same legal standing for those kids as you and I had.
As for those who aren't interested in having a family, I actually find it interesting (encouraging?) that people who often have spent much of their lives ostracized by the rest of society would actually want the societal 'seal of approval' and legal responsibilities that marriage implies.
Personally, why anyone would want to get married if they weren't interested in having a family is beyond me.
But, then again, I'm a straight, healthy guy with incredible family and friends, a good paying job and an X in the driveway...
Happy Trails,

Excellent point. And in fact gays would be in the same boat as heterosexual couple who do not want kids, and nothing to do with marriage.
In either situation, they can have wills, contracts, etc. etc. drawn up to share with their SO's whatever they deem important. And if they split, no divorce to contend with. But law suits if they are not careful about what they put down on paper. But that's true for any partnership. |

...I'm not sure I buy all this. I'd like to read "the study". |
