General Chat

Roger Gale was only repeating a suggestion made by someone else. It wasn't to condone incest.

The suggestion he repeated was to create a Contract aka Union between 2 adults regardless of their relationship – no bedroom intimacy involved. It would then give the (say) siblings equal rights as a partnered couple. Think of elderly sisters or brothers who live together. Their lives revolve around each other as closely as if they were in a legal partnership/marriage.

Anyway – the Bill has passed its first Reading. Things might be tweaked in the Lords but for all intents and purposes, same sex couples will be allowed to have a Civil Marriage.

Is Phyll for real :-0 :-0

Edit - is John for real :-0 :-0

I am trying to compose an answer that won't be RRd.

How did I know Phylll was absolutely right :-0

"November 2010 – A young Toowoomba, Queensland man tied the knot with his best friend – a five-year-old labrador."

Loads of other examples if you search. Suggest you don't :-0 :-( :-( :-(

i can just see that in the divorce courts
i am divorcing my budgie

because he didnt tweet tweet me right ;-) ;-)

Stunned and totally lost for words, I'll let someone else report that statement Phyll

:-0

Joy :-D :-D

I honestly cannot see there will be any difference at all. They have formed a legal marriage/civil partnership contract with certs to prove that. And they share what they made during their contract and move on.

There may be trouble ahead - but while there's music and moonlight.......

There may be trouble ahead - but that is why we have so many divorce lawyers in every town these days :-(

What will happen in the first lesbian divorce case?

How will both of them get three quarters of everything? ;-) ;-)

:-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

"Same sex" marriage.
I`m all for it.
That's one of the main reasons why Her indoors and I got married,.
Because we both liked the "same," sex. :-D

ooh you're definitely an old cynic John:-0

Me and my SO always hold hands when out and about and have been married 51 yrs in March......certainly not going out with anyone's other half :-0......anyway I need a steady hand to help me.... and wouldn't have anyone else's :-D

good for you Mersey - each to his own I say

Im more a snog and a fumble kinda gal ;-) ;-)

I dont see anything wrong with showing affection to your partner in public, I do it all the time and see others doing it too...Now that doesnt mean to say sucking each others faces off and squashing bits here and there infront of the whole of Liverpool, thats for other places not in public ;-)

I know someone who is a man who dresses as a woman, he likes to be called "Stef" when you talk to her and I admire her so so much, shes defintley got balls but shes also got guts, and ive got all the time in the world for her. Such a lovley person whom I have to say while walking round the village I visit each week gets some vile comments and the strangest stares, she is happy and I call her " she "because thats how she wants to be classed as , and I respect that... I have also seen some horrible youtube videos of her which upsets me and a few others who know her.......*Absolutley True*

My name is Robert and I am a (very old) heterosexual Male.

Will you please stop abusing my name!!!!!

I always hold my dear old boy up when we're out :-D

Good for you Emma, same here.

I think it's sad that some feel they have to treat their partner like a stranger in public, regardless of age.

Emma :-D You soppy ha'porth

I like a kiss and a cuddle and love holding my OH hand. :-)

And I'm not holding up my OH or him me :-D

Emma :-)

LOLOL BC :-D :-D <3

TBH I find full-blown tonsil hockey mildly nauseating whatever the sex(es) involved. I came back from Paris on Eurostar once and had to see and hear the constant slobbering of two 'young lovers' opposite for most of the journey. Enough to put you off your brie & cranberry :-D :-D
