MARRIAGE BETWEEN TWO COMMITTED INDIVIDUALS SHOULD BE RECOGNIZED BY EVERY STATE IN THIS COUNTRY, REGARDLESS OF GENDER OR SEXUAL PREFERENCE.
In 2004, the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court ruled that even if marriage and some other tailored institution, like civil union, were exactly the same, the difference would create a separate-but-equal situation, and experience has shown that separate is inherently unequal.
I can't wait for the day when it doesn't matter whether someone is straight or gay- being attracted to the same sex SHOULD be as acceptable as being attracted to the opposite sex...I appreciate the strides that have been made in the media as far as acceptance of gays and lesbians go, however I'm waiting for the day when being gay is considered just as "normal" as being straight (whatever "normal" is). When it comes down to it- it doesn't matter who or how you love- in the end, just LOVING is all that matters.
