Gay Marriage
Artiste:
Thanks tampatalon!
I suppose that gay guys are more either afraid or do not know that much if not at all about gay marriages??
I know, that recently, when I talked with another gay guy about gay marriages, he said that it is better to live alone!! He repeated that often. I could not nor now understand him. Some gay guys like to live alone?
As a must somehow to live alone?
Guess much need to be done to educate about the values of gay marriages?
Hugs!

D.L. and I have separate residences. I wouldn't have it any other way. We see each other frequently, but he has his own house. I think that men and women do approach the concept of marriage differently. And men think differently about marriage at different stages of their lives. I want to eventuall marry D.L., I want the legal protection that marriage will grant in regard to any number of issues. D.L. has no interest in that type of ceremony or legality now. He will as he grows older though. But, I know men my age and older who do not agree with me at all on this. They strongly support Same Sex marriage, but do not desire to marry a partner at this time.

Wow, thanks brokeplex! So, will same sex marriages be more popular among young gay men?
Guess that you hope to get married! I pray that you will... as you like!
You feel that I will too?
Hugs!

I'm not sure about the eventual popularity of marriage between men. But,I think that we are all fighting for the option right now. That is the most important thing, that society recognize the equality in our relationships. The actual implementation later on is anybody's guess. I suspect that many gay men both young, middle aged and older will opt for a marriage,some will not. I think we see parallels in the straight community right now. Some couples marry, others don't.

I am perplexed about gay marriage too... as some are. However, I am learning about it. Even leaning towards it. I am all for pro gay marriage for persons who desire it! And get it!!
It must become an option as you say! We, gay men, need such freedom too; otherwise, our human and civil rights are not or not much respected, as in the hospitals, governments, societies, etc. !!
Yes, indeed some straights marry (I had written merry) women, some do not! Likewise, some gays will marry another gay man, while another will not! At least, that will be a choice between two gay persons!! Right?
Hugs!
