As a society we want Gay people, like others, to live stable lives. We should, therefore, encourage monogamy in Gays. The principle problem that Gays cause society is the spread of STDs through promiscuous sex. Monogamy helps alleviate this. But we cannot, in fairness, demand that Gays live in stable monogamous relationships if we do not give those relationships societal recognition. Bluntly; at a minimum a Gay person who wants to live monogamously should have legal recourse against a partner who claims to eat that, and lies about it.<br /><br />Homosexuality s a fact. There may be some people who could be 'cured' of it through methods not amounting to brainwashing, but not many. What is objectionable about the Gay subculture is largely its widespread association with what some people are pleased to call 'transgressive sex acts'; i.e. acting like adolescents with poor impulse control. If we want Gays to behave like adult members of society, we must give them the encouragement to do so that marriage represents. <br /><br />At one time, I was of the opinion that 'Civil Unions', legally equal to Marriage, but differently named, were the answer. I came to realize that, even with marriage, there would be years (if not decades) of petty functionaries denying Gay couples the legal recognition to which their unions were entitled simply from the pettifogging pleasure that such pests get from saying 'no'. Calling Gay Marriages 'Civil Unions' would only drag out this period of pettiness. C. S. P. Schofieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18307088118631856756noreply@blogger.com
