Day 15 - Gay Marriage

In my opinion marriage is marriage. It's a piece of paper. A bond between two people who love each other enough to say "Hey, look at us! We're joining together! We are one!" Whether that's a man and a woman. A man and a man. A woman and a woman. It's all the same.

The same can be said for adopting children. Most people (I found out that my mom is one of these people) don't completely care if "Those gays get married" but they believe that they shouldn't be allowed to adopt children. In her (and others) eyes only a man and a woman can raise a child correctly. What about all the single fathers and mothers who choose not to remarry. Who choose not to bring another person into their little family. Are they not good parents? Do they not sacrifice just as much as a "normal" couple to make sure their children are fed, clothed, and well rested? If a single parent can do it then why can't a couple?

I feel that we have all come too far to try to start another "civil war". Does their relationship affect you personally in any way? No. Are they hurting you physically by being together and raising children? No. Then leave everyone be. People are people. That is that. And that's all I have to say on this subject.
