Ahem.

According to CA state Senator Tom McClintock (Thousand Oaks), I'm not married:

"The reason marriage is fundamentally different from a civil contract is that marriage is formed for a fundamental purpose - that is, to bring a new life into the world."

keep the Senator out of our bedrooms

Marriage is for personal partnership not baby-making.
It is amazing what comes out of these politician's mouths.

Ah, screw these fundamental assholes. You're married, I was there, I witnessed it ... <g>

[fionnbharro.livejournal.com]

Eww!

[fionnbharro.livejournal.com]

So.... is this a *good* thing, or a *bad* thing?

[fionnbharro.livejournal.com]

Married or not, having kids in one's life really *is* a thoroughly rewarding experience.

( Still basking in the 'new-dad, again' glow, I am...)

[goldenstag.livejournal.com]

I witnessed the marriage ceremony, nothing else. Sheesh.

"Eww" to the "screw these fundamental assholes"

[goldenstag.livejournal.com]

Well, I didn't mean it literally, sheesh.

Uh, I got married to get more sex...am I married still?

Logical conclusions

[cvirtue.livejournal.com]

I think couples who want to get married shouldn't be allowed to unless they bring their babies with them, then. Anyone who can't prove progenability (is that a word?) will have their marriages annulled immediately.

A perfectly legitimate reason!

Marriage is a *good* thing.

[madbaker.livejournal.com]

I heartily object to being told that my marriage isn't valid because we don't plan to procreate.

OK, Just so, you know, you're both not lesbians or in vegetative states, or anything like that.





(This was total snark, you know...)

Ah, the neo-Shaker Theology, I see.

[cvirtue.livejournal.com]

"It is better to marry than to burn" -- I think that was St. Paul.

Did it work??????


(Statistics show that 40% of all American couples, hetero or homosexual, report a 50-60% drop in sexual activity within 4 years of marriage.... NIH report, 2004...)

[patsmor.livejournal.com]

Absolutely. The idiot.
