People want respect. If you are living with a partner privately, no one might interfere with you, but it's not a high status thing.
If you get married, publically, you are declaring your relationship, and demanding it be respected and honoured by all. Quite a different thing.
You can wear the ring. Have a ceremony. You can declare it and demand it be respected and honored. If that isn't enough to assuage your emotional insecurities, expecting the government to redress your self-confidence issues legally is fucking asinine. -

Originally posted by Obbe If two people who love each other want to get married, why shouldn't they? Of course nobody needs some weird artificial ritual, but maybe some people like that sort of thing?
They can do whatever they want. Gay dudes can even invent their own ritual where they take viagra and spin on their cocks like beyblades while they recite their vows. What's stopping them if they like that sort of thing? They can have all the fun artificial ceremonies and rituals they want.
Why should they be included in the government or religious concept of marriage though? "Because... like... love, man" isn't particularly compelling justification. How does legal recognition by the state effect your love? You could maybe argue the spiritual importance of being accepted by your church, but if you're doing something incompatible with your religion you can't pretend that your religion is all that important. -

i.e. it's a tax break. For being married. To help strengthen your family's financial situation and make a better home in which to have your child. Which you then also get more tax breaks for having. Why let married couples move down a tax bracket? Just for shits and gigs?
So why come fag marriage is a thing then?

2021-01-28 at 12:23 AM UTC in How can two gay people be 'married'?I mean the role of a homemaker isn't to "make a home you can comfortably take a semen infused shit in". It's to make a good home to raise a family in. To raise children in. And the government undeniably subsidizes this kind of family structure, so if marriage is just about gaining the ability to jointly file taxes and receive this benefit, what place does a marriage that can't result in children have within that institution?
Abolish gay marriage! Gas the sterile! No boner? Two boners? Get boned! -

Originally posted by Lanny Marriage as a tax status isn't about encouraging the growth of families, the tax advantages of children exist with or without marriage (single parents claim their children as dependents in the same way as a married couple does). The logic for the tax situation is the (less and less common) institution of single income marriages, where one party earns all the money and another brings in none, to allow taxation to be applied more like each party brought in part of the income. It's the same logic that informs alimony: that marriage is an economic partnership where both members contribute in dissimilar ways. And that's what the significance of gay marriage is as well, or any marriage, economic partnership.
The whole "marriage is about children" thing is some retarded retconing by the right to try and push undesirables out of their sight.
Okay, and why would the government create a tax incentive which promotes homemaker-breadwinner households if not to spur the development of the traditional nuclear family structure? Giving taxbreaks to families with homemakers is just for shits 'n' gigs I guess?

Originally posted by jfakldjfkdaljfalkdfjlkad The point of marriage is taxes. That's it.
Okay, and... why? If the point of marriage is taxes, what's the point of those changes to taxes? There's certainly a case to be made that joint filing of taxes encourages the traditional homemaker-breadwinner nuclear family structure. Surely you don't mean to suggest that's unintentional. Like why even make joint filing an option? Why require marriage for it? 🤔 -

Ehhhh, he might have a bit of a point though. If you were "happier" (read: had a happier early life, could feel the general sense of contentment and complacency that 'normies' feel), you probably wouldn't find globohomo so threatening. Kinda pointless to think about that though really, since you're you and not some other happier version of you.
"Haha if your neurochemistry and life experiences were completely different you'd probably be okay with the stuff you hate" is such a fucking non-statement. -

Not only was he displeased with the fact that I was dating his daughter, but when once I had recited some of my writings to his daughter the villain had claimed my prose was "too purple". He said no daughter of his could be permitted to date a man who wrote like a fan fic author newly dabbling in erotica. I was floored.

Marriage lets you save time doing taxes.
All individuals should have the right to save time doing taxes with whomever they please.
Lack of gay marriage is a lack of individual rights.
Marriage tax benefits are intended to reduce financial stress on new family units, so they can have an easier time expanding the family unit. It's soft eugenics. Gay marriage is dysgenic. Marriage is a eugenics program so what place does dysgenic gay marriage have in it? It's a fair question. -
