It doesn't cheapen or harm my marriage that Britney Spears' first trip to the altar lasted about five hours longer than it took to annul or that some people marry for green cards or to hide their sexuality, so how can it harm my marriage for two people who love one another and are completely committed to one another marry, just because they can share a wardrobe and gender-specific grooming products? There are precisely two people in the world who can harm my marriage, and they are me and Mr. Twistie. Kai Jones, that's great news! I'd missed that one, so thanks for passing on the word.

Get married, get divorced, co-habitat, swing from the ceiling and yodel, etc... Every time I hear "protect traditional marriage" I want to know if the person saying it is serious. Traditional marriage means selling your daughters for monetary or political gain. Marriage for love is a very recent event and still not practiced in half the world. Women are chatel and traded with little or no say in who they are married to. So, just say no to "traditional" marriage and let adults who love each other, want to commit to each other, and make a home get married! And go thru the same crap and expense to get divorced as "traditional" couples... I think consenting adults should be able to do whatever they choose.
