It's ALL true

Even though in Germany gay-marriage is legal since  a few years, it's a shame that it had to be "approved" from some "important people" to make it legal, that's just not right. And it's also a shame that it's not allowed all around the world. And especially the USA - so called "land of the free" - should give their (gay) population the freedom to legally marry the person they love.

Here's a little (very sarcastic and ironic) list about the US double moral standards:

01) Being gay is not natural. Real Americans always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses, polyester, and air conditioning. 

02) Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay, in the same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall. 

03) Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behavior. People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage contract. 

04) Straight marriage has been around a long time and hasn't changed at all; women are still property, blacks still can't marry whites, and divorce is still illegal. 

05) Straight marriage will be less meaningful if gay marriage were allowed; the sanctity of Britany Spears' 55-hour just-for-fun marriage would be destroyed. 

06) Straight marriages are valid because they produce children. Gay couples, infertile couples, and old people shouldn't be allowed to marry because our orphanages aren't full yet, and the world needs more children. 

07) Obviously gay parents will raise gay children, since straight parents only raise straight children. 

08) Gay marriage is not supported by religion. In a theocracy like ours, the values of one religion are imposed on the entire country. That's why we have only one religion in America. 

09) Children can never succeed without a male and a female role model at home. That's why we as a society expressly forbid single parents to raise children. 

10) Gay marriage will change the foundation of society; we could never adapt to new social norms. Just like we haven't adapted to cars, the service-sector economy, or longer life spans. 

Re-post this if you believe LOVE makes a marriage.

It really surprises me that America and American tend to judge gay, homosexual, gay-marriage .etc. I mean, I live in an Asia country, where they judge almost everything, so it's not hard to understand people's behavior with gay issue. But it's USA, like you said, the so called "land of the free". They treat them like diseases, like something so immoral. If you asked me, Hollywood has enough of immoral things, and nothing involved gay issue.
Anyway, I've just watched "Milk" and felt touched by his life, his determination to fight for gay right. I just wish we have more Harvey Milk in USA. Maybe the world can change.
