A Rant from the Empowered-Vagina Utopia

I am so sick and tired of everyone bitching because they can't get married benefits. I'm sick of hearing married folks say, "Well, that's what marriage is. If they wanted to be married, they should be straight and get married!"

Knock it off!

And the government, too, who feeds into this sense of entitlement given to people because they are married. Giving breaks and offering benefits with things as important as health care is ridiculous. Marriage isn't for everyone, and they shouldn't try to force people's hands to get married just to make life simpler. That is not what marriage is.

I am of the opinion that everyone should recieve equal benefits and rights when it comes to "married" v. "non-married" status. If you can makes things cheaper and easier, do it. We'll have a party instead, that will be the benefit. I think married people should celebrate in a way that emphasizes their commitment and love, with a special type of celebration only permitted to married people.

Gay people who aren't " legally married" but are committed and in love (hey! just like MARRIED STRAIGHT PEOPLE) should be able to have a celebration tailored to suit their interest, they shouldn't be forced to try and rationalize how they're just the same as straights. They're not. There's nothing wrong with not being exactly the same. No one should have the right to tell them they are not "allowed" to call themselves a family, no one should have the right to scoff at their commitment to each other. So she likes girls and he likes boys. Love is love is love, and if ANYONE is willing to make a real commitment to the person they are with, they should celebrate that, and we should celebrate with them. Again, this particular sort of celebration is only allowed to be held by married homosexuals, and it's a federal offense (in the evu) to cross-party.

My favorite celebration would be partying with the single people.

Single people -gay or straight- should celebrate their self-fullfilment, their individuality and (everyone's favorite!) SELF LOVE! That would be an awesome party. Party packs include AA batteries, four kinds of lube and a nudie mag. Any married people who hold this sort of party are immediately dragged into the street and shot, because no one wants to think about married people playing with themselves, I'm fairly sure.

Who's with me?
