T Eman the powerful Romans liked to have "their concubines" aka as little boys take it you know where so I don't think that is what you meant to say! Mr. Mutthead represents a culture (the Catholic Church) that has given rise to a bunch of sexual preps and now he wants to preach morality! There are plenty of men of collar giving it to one another in the confessional because of the whole be asexual business! Hey the Catholic Church is essentially already condoning gay marriage amongst their priestly flock!report abuse

We're not trying to force anything on anyone. We're trying to let gays and lesbians get their lives in order so they can have a fulfilling life that includes marriage.

You don't have to do a damn thing different. Just sit in your living room in your underwear, beer in hand and brood about how bad the world treats you, like always.report abuse
