      - OK... define YOUR role.... - R.L. - 4/20/2006 10:57:57 PM
        
        Nothing wrong with being single (n/t) - SDF - 4/21/2006 1:03:36 AM
        
        and I'm not demanding spousal benefits either, since I have no special role (n/t) - SDF - 4/21/2006 1:06:35 AM
        
        By your reasoning... - R.L. - 4/21/2006 1:04:31 PM
        
        Not really - SDF - 4/21/2006 3:12:10 PM
        
        So - then you would be ok with gays getting spousal benifits if they adopt? - R.L. - 4/21/2006 5:29:28 PM
        
        Twenty years ago, we wouldn't be having this conversation - SDF - 4/22/2006 1:06:18 PM
        
        No, we'd be having the same conversation about race. - Mary Anne - 4/22/2006 4:53:18 PM

        Good point - SDF - 4/20/2006 11:42:04 PM

        However - SDF - 4/20/2006 11:51:04 PM
        
        Do you think that you turn a PROFIT with the tax breaks by adopting a kid? - R.L. - 4/21/2006 1:07:13 PM

        If he beats her up, he should be charged with assault, taken away, and never allowed to return - SDF - 4/21/2006 4:01:51 PM
        
        Gays already adopt. - tony - 4/21/2006 12:12:41 AM
        
        I didn't know that. A court decision was made on November 26, 1999. - SDF - 4/21/2006 12:35:18 AM
        
        so should single women not be allowed to adopt? (n/t) - SDG - 4/21/2006 12:12:05 AM
        
        No. (n/t) - SDF - 4/21/2006 12:38:59 AM
        
        and if the single woman is gay? (n/t) - SDG - 4/21/2006 5:16:22 AM
        
        then she is still single (n/t) - SDF - 4/21/2006 3:50:50 PM

        Because that is the natural means by which babies are made, with few exceptions (n/t) - SDF - 4/21/2006 12:38:12 AM

        What makes you think homosexuality is natural? (n/t) - SDF - 4/21/2006 3:34:20 PM
        
        Because it appears in nature. - Mary Anne - 4/21/2006 3:50:34 PM
        
        That was my original point, it DOES appear in nature - SDF - 4/21/2006 3:54:24 PM
        
        While you assign them their "place", don't forget to shave their heads and tattoo numbers on their arms. (n/t) - Mary Anne - 4/21/2006 4:33:07 PM
        
        Ironically, many of them are already doing such things - SDF - 4/21/2006 4:45:06 PM
        
        So sayeth Some Dumb F... - R.L. - 4/21/2006 5:44:46 PM
        
        Because the cause of the condition is not understood. (n/t) - SDF - 4/22/2006 1:10:34 PM
        
        Why do you need to consider it a disease? - R.L. - 4/23/2006 8:56:08 AM
        
        You are quick to call me bigoted (which is a form of bigotry itself), but I am being objective - SDF - 4/24/2006 12:49:04 PM
        
        Corrections - Mary Anne - 4/25/2006 1:27:56 PM
        
        You are one sick puppy.... - R.L. - 4/24/2006 8:15:17 PM
        
        I don't think so - SDF - 4/25/2006 12:33:36 PM
        
        Irony is a mystery to you, isn't it? - Mary Anne - 4/21/2006 4:55:53 PM
        
        Its like coppery except harder... (n/t) - R.L. - 4/22/2006 4:59:21 AM
  - Sounds like a past description of the left-handed. - Mary Anne - 4/20/2006 6:36:08 PM
    - Left-handed people aren't so offensive. - SDF - 4/20/2006 8:15:40 PM
      - What garbage!!! - R.L. - 4/20/2006 10:51:56 PM
        
        The degree of deviance that people are willing to accept varies somewhat, but not really that much. - SDF - 4/21/2006 12:53:10 AM
        
        Setting rather than content. - Mary Anne - 4/21/2006 1:25:30 PM
        
        It used to be the same for interracial marriage... - R.L. - 4/21/2006 1:12:39 PM
        
        Only in some countries - SDF - 4/21/2006 3:24:03 PM
      - Maybe they don't hate men. - Mary Anne - 4/20/2006 9:26:20 PM

        Well, if they act a certain way and their friends act the same way - SDF - 4/21/2006 3:20:15 PM
        
        Um, because human beings are more complex than that. - Mary Anne - 4/21/2006 3:37:12 PM
        
        I don't think people are complex at all - SDF - 4/21/2006 3:42:46 PM
        
        Obviously. - Mary Anne - 4/21/2006 3:53:06 PM
        
        Simple response. (n/t) - SDF - 4/21/2006 3:56:23 PM
        
        Suits you, then. (n/t) - Mary Anne - 4/21/2006 3:59:45 PM
        
        LOL. What's wrong, can't win? - SDF - 4/21/2006 4:08:22 PM
        
        According to some parliamentary rules, silence implies consent. - Mary Anne - 4/21/2006 5:08:51 PM
      - Hatred of men? - Tony - 4/20/2006 9:12:13 PM
        
        It's not really hatred that I feel. It's disgust. Why are you willing to accept their bahaviour, but not willing to accept that I am offended by it? (n/t) - SDF - 4/21/2006 1:01:24 AM
        
        Be offended all you want. - Mary Anne - 4/21/2006 12:54:16 PM
        
        re: Be offended all you want. - SDF - 4/21/2006 3:16:03 PM
        
        Then file charges for harassment. - Mary Anne - 4/21/2006 3:39:32 PM
        
        I still think they should justify their sexual preference before encoding it in law - SDF - 4/21/2006 3:49:37 PM
        
        Why? And do you intend to institute a "test" for that too? - Mary Anne - 4/21/2006 4:00:24 PM
        
        You lasted longer than me :-) - Tony - 4/21/2006 5:14:59 PM
        
        You still letting that eat you up inside? - SDAI-Tech1 - 4/22/2006 6:41:08 AM
        
        Not eating up. - Tony - 4/22/2006 7:38:45 PM
        
        Most diseases are biological. Eventually we find treatments. - SDF - 4/21/2006 4:04:03 PM
        
        Yup, and education is the vaccine against bigotry... (n/t) - R.L. - 4/22/2006 1:49:01 AM
