Thanks brokeplex!
You say this: 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!
