Copy this sentence into your livejournal if you're in a heterosexual non-same-sex marriage, and you don't want it "protected" by the bigots who think that gay marriage hurts it somehow.
Although I think of our marriage as heterosexual, in the strictest sense. Just because of the people in it isn't doesn't change that the marriage itself is a guy and a girl.
My sweetie changed it and I ganked it from him. Well . . . I think if one of the parties in the marriage isn't heterosexual then it's NOT a heterosexual marriage. In my case, we're both bisexual, so you could call it a bisexual marriage.
~ I say the damn gubbamit shouldn't be in the marriage business in the first place. Isn't the two-member straight version essentially establishing or affirming state religion? Why can't Mormons have polygamy? People should simply be making their own legal contracts. There'll be a couple standard ones that all the plebes use; folks who want multiples, gays, straight... who cares? Let the lawyers sort 'em out. Heinlein's The Moon is a Harsh Mistress is great inspiration in this regard.
