Live & let live.

Everyone has the right to love whoever they chose too, and if God made humans both Gay & straight I believe they should all be allowed to get married, and in church if they so wish.

Same goes in some churches regarding divorcees....but that's another story!

Dear All

Hello


I have not been happy with the wording of the marriage vows.
They seem purely based on procreation.

Many couples do not want children or are unable to have them.

I believe if you find the right person and wish to make a committment, (hetro or gay)
then go to a registry office.

Once you have the legal piece of paper, you can then decide if you want a blessing from the church, which I don't believe should be withheld from anyone.


Take gentle care
Best wishes
Elizabeth, EOS

Have to agree with you on the criminal waste point.

Gwynne, I can definitely bear witness to your flamboyance. I love your flamboyance :-D

I have to admit in the past when I've found out some men are gay I've thought 'What a waste.' ;-)

Gawd, some gay men are just so attractive, I'd kill for the cheekbones some have ;-)

*like*

Gay Pride rallies are fantastic, they are world wide......plus a bit of eye stare candy for everyone.

;-) :-D :-D.

Indeed, Julie.

I'm sure you can bear witness to my flamboyance as well! ;-)

you're welcome too - and yes I agree

Aye, there's always that but isn't there.

Thank you, Errol.

It's a bit like people who say I'm not homophobic/racist/sexist - then go on to prove they are.

you're welconme

Thank yu Errol

I like a bit of flamboyance myself John :-)

May be why I like the theatre :-) a bit over the top, a bit extrovert, a bit "flamboyant"...all the things I'm not lol except in my secret soul. :-D

edit, a bit out of sync there, but laughing at Sue's comment re leather, I find it strangely attractive (for a vegetarian lol) ;-)

Lolol eldest daughter (straight) goes to the Gay Pride rally in Cardiff if she's not working and has a whale of a time :-D You should try it John ;-) A bit like the Nottinghill Carnival but a bit more colourful (and there's leather) :-D :-D :-D

Well said Guinevere.
One thing that annoys me is people that claim they embrace modern attitudes towards non heterosexuals but then add a caveat.


Edit....
Well said Mel too

Why would yu give "them" a stare? Surely if the rally is peaceful they have the same rights to march and enjoy the march as any other group! Would yu give the stare to the edl for instance? would yu be big enough to do that? I have seen the march in Birmingham tooI have only observed a group of men who are happy with who they are- not ppl to be gawped at to wither their confidence!
Maybe the insecurities lie within yurself!

I've been accused of flamboyant behaviour in the past and I'm straight, John. I love flamboyance.

No stare from you would make me any less flamboyant and I doubt it did those at Gay Pride. We flamboyants are used to fuddy duddies disapproving and don't give a flying fig.

Peter Tatchell challenges all kinds of prejudice wherever he sees it. And has been assaulted by heavies for doing so. No one should doubt his courage. He tried to arrest Mugabe for human rights abuses. I don't agree with all of his actions or agree with him on everything but I admire his courage.

He has challenged Muslim clerics attitude to homosexuality and the suppression of women in the past - read his biography.

Incidentally, the Bill has been approved by a pretty substantial majority
