How so? [/QUOTE]My co-worker has been with his partner for 16 years, that is longer then most marriages nowadays [img]smile.gif[/img] [/QUOTE]My parents have been married 28 years. Guess that puts hetero marriages in front again

There's nothing intrinsic to being heterosexual or homosexual that makes one union any more likely to last than any other.

How so? [/QUOTE]Seems like same sex couples stand a better chance of understanding one another than their heterosexual couples.

how are two completely different individuals more likely to understand each other than two other completely different individuals?? gender is not the issue when it comes to mis-communication


and just an aside on the original post...
way to go Klein, good job reinforcing the stereotype that all Albertans are ignorant rednecks, go sober up you drunk and step into the next millennium, or atleast the 90's. and if you want me to substantiate that he is a drunk (other than the episode where he stumbled into a shelter and told them all the get a job) he drinks with my high school chem teacher, a lot.

hehehehe the only reason Klein hasn't had to endure Campbell's martini ordeal is because Klein utilizes a full time driver.

I'd say that if you had to fight 20 years to finally get maried, chances are that you won't divorce any time soon.

They don't. If they decided to get a child, they will have to go for adoption. In the case of lesbians, they could go for test tube babies / artificial insemination.

No way Animal, Jerry Springer is a hoax. This was in downtown Amsterdam, where those kind of things can happen.

How so? [/QUOTE]Well I know the above is a well debated theory. I bet you can find the statistic/research on the net.

Anyway, good for them. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Callum, I disagree with you somewhat. All those apposing gay marriages are not homophobes. Tradition is another major thing you know.
