If you are opposed to same-sex marriage, are you willing to push for this law?

No, because infertility is not an impediment to marriage. If it was then the elderly could not get married. The inability to have sex is an impediment to marriage. I want to say that’s called impotency but I don’t think that’s the right word. I think there’s a different word but it just won’t come to my mind.

I would, however, support a Constitutional Amendment defining marriage as being between one man and one woman ONLY. Unfortunately I don’t think we’ll ever see that kind of Constitutional Amendment.

That’s right. Permanent and antecedent impotence on the part of either party is an impediment to marriage. Infertility is not. The marital act is one which can only be engaged in by a man and a woman. Marital relations can never be accomplished by same sex couples, thus marriage is impossible to them.

Don’t forget what homosexuality is. In all instances, it is a hyper appeal to femininity (rejection of the role of the “man” performed by a man in a pairing [appeal of a woman’s sexual role], or appeal of a woman to a woman [appeal of a woman’s as a partner]). This is avoided, if not abhorred by “men” (heterosexual men) [and moreso then by women] who do not want to be equated with their counterpart’s role in the sexual pairing, as it is against their nature, and against the fulfillment of one of the purposes of their nature.

Women’s role in sex is of (for lack of an easier description) is one of “receiver,” and, as such, a women’s understanding or tolerance of men’s sexuality in homosexuality is of less alienity then for hetersexual men.
