Subject: This is me being really pissed off about gay rights Author: Ben [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 06/26/03 6:54pm Okay, so I'm actually happy that gay people are allowed to have sex in the privacy of their own homes in Texas and other southern states now, but I'm pissed at (a) the fact that it took this long for that to happen, and (b) the fact that people are speaking out against it, as if it's some sort of tragedy. The old "slippery slope" argument is getting a lot of play. If we allow these perverse (i.e., not like me) gay people to do whatever they want in their own homes, pretty soon _everyone_ will want to do whatever they want in their own homes, including having sex with animals and making nuclear missles. We call ourselves a "free country," but people can't have sex with a consenting partner in their own homes? Geez. I know I'm not usually this outspoken, but I find this issue absolutely ridiculous. It reminds me of the similarly ridiculous sign I saw in front of a church recently: "Freedom of religion, not freedom from religion." Give me a break.
