My marriage is doomed. Thanks, Arizona. |

Edited on Wed Nov-15-06 07:20 PM by blondeatlast
Ten years with this wonderful man. One marvelous child, our 9 year old son. All the good times, all the pain--for naught.
Gone.
Damn you Arizonans for supporting "gay marriage!"
(This is a joke--I'm still rubbing everyone's face in the fact that this is the first state to strike down the RRRS ridiculous legislation...)
How, exactly, is NOT having this legislation on the books supposed to doom my marriage?

It's a "girly" thing, of course.

5. The divorce rate in your state just went up to 99.99% |
|
Just the possiblity of us homos getting married in Arizona is effectively going to destroy heterosexual marriage as we know it.
And writing the above makes me realize, once again, how just plain ignorant the haters are.
I'm very pleased that your state showed some common sense and said "no" to bigotry. Rejecting that amendment is good for ALL Arizonans. :thumbsup:

13. Here's the real puzzler... |
|
How can something that doesn't exist threaten my marriage?
The proposition was to prohibit unmarried SOs of any persuasion from being offered benefits such as health care for SOs. I'm proud to say that both my and my (ex-)* husband's employers offer these benefits to SOs.
Geez, I went through the whole "wedding" thing, I'm SOOOOO pissed. :sarcasm:
It's been happening all this time, so all of a sudden it's a threat to my marriage of 10 years? :wtf:
*I repeat that this is joke; we're very happy.

10. I don't get it, either. If John and Jim down the street want to get married, how |
|
the FUCK is that supposed to affect my marriage to Mrs R?
I've asked quite a few anti-gay-marriage people this question, and have NEVER gotten a coherent answer.

15. As a Californian, I give props to Arizona! |
|
It looks like Arizona is much more progressive than my blue state, at least on this issue. Good job, Arizona! :thumbsup:

18. I was going to get married to a woman next year |

I guess this means I'll have to get The Gay and marry a man.

22. DAMN! That means the sanctity of my 18 1/2 year marriage.. |
|
has been violated as well! Bastards! Nothing left for me to do now except start shopping for a box turtle. How will I 'splain this to the kids?
"Sorry kids, it's over. Those godless heathen abortionist liberal bastards in Arizona seem to think that everyone deserves the same rights, so your dad and I have no choice but to divorce and marry reptiles...no no..no republicans, actual reptiles."
