Before you judge this question, I shall put it out there that my opinion on marriage is that it seems to be a joke (To clarify it is just my opinion and not right or wrong per se but just my opinion from observing newly weds, divorced couples, and couples that have been married for many many years.)
To those of you out there who support and want to make same sex marriage legal, what do you find about marriage that is intriguing. Based on statistics there is more than 50% chance you will likely end in divorce?
If it is a unifying contract that one is after, why don't same sex couples or group of people who support same sex marriage make up a term for such union and make it into law. I say that because matrimony in Latin means state of motherhood.
So why fight the system, be creative, make up a term based on some Latin root word that has something to do with same sex union and go with it.
Won't that just be an excellent compromise, I mean it's easier to create a tradition rather than change the very very very old "tradition" of so called "marriage"?
Marriage is law based you say, yes maybe but it is also a deep rooted tradition. And regarding statistics, it has to do with personality, male or female, if you're not willing to sacrifice for each other and forgive it's going to end up in divorce. Whether it be heterosexual or homosexual relationships.
Yes Anna changes can be good, I never said it wasn't but the masses of people are opposed to change. The crowd mentality is always dependent on past events/ ideas and require some radical/ powerful interruption in the thought process to bring about change.
And same sex union not basing themselves on the term marriage is not a bad idea because marriage itself was invented to own women as property. Not the history of something one would want to associate themselves with.
The base motive for marriage was for the legitimacy of descendants.
