Because I like a man. The opposite sex I am attracted to. Listen, that " marriage " for man and a woman for many years and it is recognized by the state. I grew up IN THAT.
I was never affected when my aunt was a lesbian, because my mother was overprotected over me. I remember when I was a young kid, I was browsin' through my aunt's family photo album and I saw her name there along with other woman's name. My mother came and saw me with photo album book, she took that book from me and told me to mind my own business. I was stunned and confused. I was the one who made a leather belt for my aunt from my old school and never thought that she was a lesbian. I just thought of her as my " aunt ". She is my mother's sister. Soo ... that was how I grew up. I was the only one in the family that wore a blindfold, not means to wear a blindfold, but it was my mother who hided me from seein' things that she don't want me to know.
But, I just learned from readin' several articles since last night about gay/lesbian people that they will receive more rights durin' Obama's presidency later on. So, please do not feel bad that I opposed marriage for gay/lesbian people. Okay ? It's just me -- it's the way I grew up.
Jillio, I want you to understand that it is NOT offensive when you mentioned about " bestiality " issue. I was tryin' to express what my feeling was when I brought that issue up relatin' to the same sex lifestyle. That feelin' is NOT okay when it comes to marriage for gay/lesbian people. It's MY feelin'. It doesn't mean that I hate them or what ever. I like to talk to them. I am aware of Byrdie's not straight and yet, I still like to chat with him. He is a cool guy and funny, too. I show my respect if, he choses to marry. There's nothin' I can do.
