What are gays missing out on by simply not giving the legal term "marriage" to their relationship?




ummm...EQUALITY?



So the definition of equality in this case is having the same things as heterosexuals? As I show here, this is a problem:

I don't understand why the homosexual community puts so much emphasis on beoming heterosexuals. This is analagous to the feminists basing the success of their movement on how much more like men they can become. If homosexuals put as much energy into building the prestige and significance of their relationships as they put into trying to become part of a historically and socially heterosexual institution, they would advance much further towards 'equality'.




The gay community needs to re-focus its efforts and it will begin to gain more respect from the 70% or so people in this country who feel like the homosexual lifestyle is being rammed down their throats.
