Gay Rights

[doronjosama]

This is a meme I can get behind. Because to me, gay rights are just human rights, and everyone deserves equality.

"We would like to know who really believes in gay rights on livejournal. There is no bribe of a miracle or anything like that. If you truly believe in gay rights, then repost this and title the post as "Gay Rights". If you don't believe in gay rights, then just ignore this. Thanks."

If you don't believe in gay rights, then just ignore this.

Just because I choose not to post this in my journal doesn't mean I don't believe in gay rights. That sort of instantly turned me off to this meme, since I do consider myself rather rabid about the rights of gays to marry whom they want and not suffer discrimination.

The most popular answer I hear when asked "why sholdn't gays be allowed to marry" is "because it defiles the sanctity of marriage".

You know what else "defiles" the sanctity of marriage?

Divorce.

There is no "sanctity" anymore, so that answer is bullshit.

In a world that needs as much love as possible, it's a god damned shame that people are trying to put obstacle up to prevent it. Love is love, regardless of gender, and I abhore the notion that it should follow "guidelines".

Gays are human as well. They should have just as many rights as anyone else.

I don't really know what it means to "believe in gay rights". I don't think I believe in them. I don't believe in feminism, or gay or lesbian rights or african american rights or whatever. I believe there should be equal rights for everyone, and discrimination in either direction, good or bad, either annoys or flat out makes me mad. I get mad when there are "ladies days" without a male equivalent for example... Why do girls get cheaper cinema tickets in japan? it's just not fair.

This is the gayest meme I've ever seen on LJ!
