So apparently the US goes a major step forward - yet they slam their faces against the door by forbidding marriage between homosexuals.

I'm honestly so pissed and so disappointed that I don't know where to start.

'The California Constitution will specify that only marriage between a man and a woman is valid or recognized in California.'

WHATTHEFUCK?

I know I shouldn't be offended by this, as it is fully legal to get married in Denmark (townhall) even though you're two people of the same sex. I still do not understand why homosexuals cannot be wed in the Christian church, but I assume religion is one of the things that I'll never understand - basically as it goes hand in hand with war and intolerance. Whatever breeds the other.

In Denmark it is a tendency that men cannot take homosexual men. Many girls tend to freak out if I tell them that I like girls - yet I do have a certain preference to penis-carrying individuals (no sexual). I love the looks and feeling of girls, but that doesn't mean that I'm gonna go rape whoever girl that passes by. I think that's definitely something people tend to forget. A heterosexual won't go frustrape whoever of the opposite sex that comes along, just like homosexual men don't hump every guy on their way. We all have a certain class and certain preferences; eg. I don't like guys that are shorter than me yet I don't mind girls that are. But not only the height makes a person. I'm honestly very hard to impress and maybe I do tend to put up high expectations to a relationship - maybe higher than what good is. That all could explain my current (and prolly eternal) status, lol.

If people find love and they want to be bound together via marriage, then why stop them, just because they share gender? Sexual discrimination is such old news these days. This is the 21st century, people! America can get a black president, for the first time ever, but we're still too hypocrite and too homophobe to recognize the fact, that two people of the same sex can fall in love? I'd say, male/female - male/male - female/female, people are FREAKING LUCKY if they ever get to experience real love. That true deep love that locks people together throughout a shit-ass long time.

Did the catholics beat the crap out of the justice system in Cali, since it came out of nowhere? Why is it suddenly a problem, that two people of the same gender are married? It is a scientific fact, that approx 70 % of all animal creatures have bisexual tendencies. INCLUDING the human being. Why ignore the fact, that we're not all the same? We preach tolerance, freedom of soul and speech, equal rights for all - yet you can still agree to take away the pleasure of marriage from homosexuals?

The USA made the declaration of independence; stating that man has the right to search and find happiness - the right to speak his mind and be free. Isn't taking away that right a little lame, just because of one's sexuality?

America is supposed to be the greatest nation of all - a country that people aim to be like and other countries imitate. Even pathetic little Denmark hasn't gone as far as eliminating the right to marriage between two people of the same gender. It DISGUSTS me to see such a great nation waste it's development throughout the years. Coming up with a prop SO LAME, that I can barely breathe from laughing.

Not only does America think that it can preach rights and smear them in other countries' faces. They think so holy of themselves. The US is a super power, it leads the world towards peace and freedom. Towards independence and equality, globalization and a united world where everyone can live happily ever after - unless you're gay?

Since when were the homosexual excluded from the goods of living in a free nation?

Except for approval of death penalty and the useless war in Iraq, the US has REALLY lost it this time. I'd say that's strike 3. For how long can you keep on degrading yourselves? "Change We Need", yes indeed. But is this how it's gonna be like? What's next, America? That the homosexuals cannot shop at the locals heterosexuals' stores? That all people in the world are not allowed to wear sandals because of the high risk of  exchange of vapoured body fluids among people of the same gender?

Sex change you can approve, but not marriage between male/male and female/female. Do people really have to change who they are, to fit into your perfect little picture of freedom and world peace? What on EARTH do the Shall of California Constitution gain by acknowledging  a law this fucked up?

Someone, please tell me.

I cannot seem to understand.

'Because marriage between individuals of the same sex is currently valid in California, there would likely be an increase in spending on weddings by same-sex couples in California over the next few years. This would result in increased revenue, primarily sales tax revenue, to state and local governments. ' makes we wonder if this proposition is just a sick excuse for making more money.

'Proposition 8 restores what 61% of voters already approved: marriage is only between a man and a woman. Four judges in San Francisco should not have overturned the people's vote. Prop. 8 fixes that mistake by reaffirming traditional marriage, but doesn't take away any rights or benefits from gay domestic partners. ' is absolutely disgusting, as allowing people of the same gender to get married DEFINITELY is not a mistake. The freedom to find happiness has reached it's limit? This is so disgustingly sad and low. There is no mistake to correct, excpet for the intolerant population called '61%' who feels the need to hold down the homosexuals around them. I'm not gonna go all Chris Crocker on you and scream like a girl. It just makes me sad, that a state as open and well-known as California, can allow itself to discriminate sexuality on such a disturbing level.

If this is how it is going to be like from now on, why don't we all just convert to insanity and move to DPRK?

And I, who thought that the Jante Law would never globalize... I guess, I was wrong.
