    Well, I guess I'm just old fashioned. I thought marriage was an ancient institution symbolising the life long commitment between a man and a woman.

    Gay dude couple(John and Hank) talking to friends Dick and Mary

    John: Hi Mary, meet my husband, Hank.

    Mary:HUH!(Scooby Doo voice)

    Later that day:

    Hank: Hi Dick, meet my husband John.

    Dick: HUH!(Scooby Doo voice)

    Sorry folks, I believe marriage should be reserved as a hetero institution. Hey if you want to shack up with your gay partner, that's your business.

    Couples that are unmarried tend not to have the same legal, inheritance and pension rights as couples that are married. Banning gay weddings puts same sex partners at a definite disadvantage - when they are widowed they find that they have no legal right to anything of their partners. There's a question of human rights here, people should be treated equally no matter what their sexual orientation.

    Baloney. Gays can arrange their affairs so that their partners have survivorship benefits. TR

    Matty – Thank you Matty, I’ll be researching my legal rights when I get married. It’s definitely not for everyone. As Lily Tomlin once said, “Marriage is a great institution, if you really want to belong in an institution”

    T.R. – Thanks for your candor and honesty as always. My fiancé and I support heterosexual marriages too. Hey, you guys have to shoulder the burden of having children….

    Andi – Pshaw, your boyfriend had no competition the day you two lovebirds met. My boyfriend (Bruce) and I agree, Neil’s hot, hot, hot! and excellent taste in music. I can’t comprehend how you guys waited until marriage … it boggles my blatantly hedonistic mind how much self control you guys have.

    Rayzorblade – We’ve never met, but would love to chat sometime. E-mail me when you get the chance. As Montel says, I would like to hear your story…

    Big Tex – Much thanks Tex!

    Moe – My magnificent Moe, Bruce and I thank you for all your support, and you’ve supported me many a time on the boards. Thank you…

    Riz – The splenor of your artistic appreciation can only be eclipsed by you’re pleasant thoughts. Thank you…

    Wildhorses – We’re planning on around the end of the year, beginning of next year. Will keep you posted.

    Crownboy – Thanx, I’ll need all the support I can get…

    Sloan – Thank you for your congrats, I’ll be happy about as much as I make up my mind to be… Expat – I went for the pre-nup baby, and accountants are sexy IMNSHO, Arthur Anderson eat your heart out…

    Joanna – Mirror, Mirror on the wall who’s the sweetest, liz-phair loving, red haired babe-ilicious ex-JW of them all.

    Nordic – I love giving anyone a reaction, good or bad, I’m not one for a middle ground…

    Vivamus – Some Nordic Godesses are better than others..
