I can't get in on this because my wife and I went to Canada and mrried last year--got tired of the whole marry-go-round of states OKing same sex marriage, only to have the homophobes find a way to strike it down.<BR/><BR/>Prestyourjet is right-it is a SHAME that we have to eep fighting the same battle over and over and over again!Ioanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16447153012879010914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3451574857665049482.post-55092758828140048252008-05-25T20:39:00.000-04:002008-05-25T20:39:00.000-04:00Hey Gretchen,Are you are your partner from Cali? ...Hey Gretchen,<BR/>Are you are your partner from Cali?

I personally don't love the term Same-Sex Marriage because I think our opponents focus just on the "sex" word and even though it references biological sex people think of our relationships purely on sexual terms. I guess the best thing is to say marriage equality.Queers Unitedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05074493276489593816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3451574857665049482.post-81468836593609427952008-05-18T18:20:00.000-04:002008-05-18T18:20:00.000-04:00"Gay" marriage?

And while I'm totally stoked about the news, the term "gay marriage" makes me feel pretty damn excluded.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3451574857665049482.post-73115352022139238182008-05-17T00:04:00.000-04:002008-05-17T00:04:00.000-04:00hell yes!!!!hell yes!!!!Barry Floorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10955883796568321038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3451574857665049482.post-47625699278374507502008-05-16T17:05:00.000-04:002008-05-16T17:05:00.000-04:00Thanks Mary and I certainly hope equality is achei...Thanks Mary and I certainly hope equality is acheieved in Wyoming and beyond soon.<BR/><BR/>On a sidenote I posted a new video from MSNBC on the marriage coverage.
