Sacred Institution Watch

So gay people can marry—so long as our marriages are empty, soul-crushing shams. From the New York Times:

THEY spend decades denying their sexual confusion to themselves and others. They generally limit their encounters with men to anonymous one-night stands and tell all manner of lies if their wives suspect…. Even after a pained awakening or acknowledgment of their sexual orientation, these men want to save their marriages, Mr. McFadden and others say, either by lying, promising their wives they will not have sex with men or persuading them to accept their double lives.

I'm glad to see you're finally starting to "get it", Dan. Now why don't you and your LAWFUL wife move in together, and just have that boyfriend on the side? Get him a studio apartment somewhere (but not on Capitol Hill - that's too gay. Do you think he'd like Burien?)

ooooh! Dan!
you should read "Gay New York" by George Chauncey. it talks about this very thing, being gay on the side, which has been a subculture in NY since the late 1800s. its a FABULOUS book.

Why should straight people have all the empty, soul-crushing fun?

Yep - Fuck that.

See, this is why gay marriage is such a threat. If we can't punish gays by forcing them into soulless marriages with people they don't want to be with, what's the point for us straights?
