Originally posted by infuryum: If the word "marriage" is so superficial, why are gay people fighting so hard for it? Many companies offer health insurance and benefits for "partners" and more are doing so every year. Do they just want to be included in the club that's been reserved for a man and woman since time began?
I think it's like how an earlier poster put it...
Doesn't matter if your gay or straight, you still pay the same taxes. Yet if you're gay, you are less of a citizen than the straight ones. You still get to die in a war you don't want to be in, but you can't get married... b/c we just can't handle that.
