Gay marriage: the truth!

[RPRPsych]

Marriage can be a lot of fun sometimes.

I refer, of course, to true marriage between a man and a woman.

Let’s reclaim the word “gay”, which originally meant happy or joyful. Heck, there’s even a hymn which goes “Gaily sing to Mary”.

So let’s post fun, silly and just plain heartwarming anecdotes about real marriage in this thread: that’s the real “gaiety” of marriage, after all. Who wants to start?

LOVE THIS!

I always tell people I’m 100 percent supportive of Gay Marriage. I think everyone has the right to be happy in their marriage.

I think we also have the right to be equal in marriage. Just because the man is head of the household doesn’t diminish the importance of the woman.

And to quote Robin Williams, “Anyone who’s married knows it’s always the same sex.”

There’s also an Australian song which goes:

Kookaburra sits in the old gumtree
Merry, merry king of the bush is he
Laugh, kookaburra, laugh
Kookaburra, gay your life must be

Hasn’t aged that well I guess

 

[ClearWater]

Don we now our gay apparel, fa, la, la…la, la , la…la. .la…la

Things are already getting pretty gay in here!

Fun story: my wife, mother and I went shopping for clothes one day.

My wife picked out something in bright purple, and held it up for our approval.

My mother said. “That suits you. It’s a bright colour, and looks very gay…”

I was reduced to laughter.

Agreed with you on the equal part. As one of my favourite song lyrics goes, “We are all equal / but we’re individually different / and able to reach the impossible / if we try!”

 

[TheLastWord]

An old man was told one day that a certain state had passed a law and now gay people could legally marry. He looked interested a moment and without hesitation, he exclaimed: Great, they should certainly be allowed to be as miserable as the rest of us are.

Wow, and then let’s make thinly veiled jokes about people in wheel chairs, the blind, I saw a mentally challenged guy who was absolutely hysterical,…ah, rememberer when retard meant to slow down?

Still does, if you’re in music.

Sorry if you felt offended. This was meant to be light-hearted. And we’re not making fun of gay people here, just recalling the older meaning of the term.

This reminded me of a discussion my husband and I had when our children were little and required a lot of work and time. We were discussing how some of our money should be spent, and my husband remarked how the money was more his than mine since he worked for it. I replied, “so does that mean the children are more mine than yours.”. He has never said anything like that again. Lol He’s a great husband and father.

He sounds a bit like me. I keep giving people lines like that.

Absolutely!! The word “gay” was one of my favorite words, able to convey joy in a way unlike any other adjective, until it was stolen and destroyed by the world.

 

[christofirst]

Let me get this straight. Are you suggesting that, properly understood, there’s nothing queer about a gay marriage?

 

[adawgj]

I looked in the sky and saw a rainbow and how wonderful it looked that it made me feel gay.

 

[RPRPsych]

Let me get this straight. Are you suggesting that, properly understood, there’s nothing queer about a gay marriage?

Absolutely. For a proper traditional definition of marriage, there is nothing queer about it being gay, and it is certainly fruitful rather than fruity. That’s straight talking for you, and there’s no need to keep it in the closet.

 

[AnimalSpirits]

Tonight on CNN: “Catholics voice enthusiastic support for gay marriage.”

Well, those in wheelchairs, the blind, handicapped, etc have no say over their condition, and of course, should not be the butt of jokes or be laughed at, there is a huge difference between those people and homosexuals.

I think its a great thread btw, I got a good laugh!!

We’ve just had a reparative therapy session with the English language!
