All straight California men are safe now

So the state Supreme Court ruled in favor of same-sex marriage today, following Massachusetts. Living and having lived in both states, I can say I did a 180 on this issue.
When it happened in Mass., I was kind of pissed because it just a public distraction. Today, I just don't care.
Now that gays can marry, maybe they can allow straights to enter domestic partnerships - a.k.a., marriage-lite. I'd be in favor of that.
My hope is that this ferrets out all the lesbos and girl-leaning bi-women out everywhere to make the state that much safer for single straight men.
Are you in fear for your sexuality?
Nah. I'd just like to see domestic partnerships for straight couples. And I don't want to date a girl-leaning bi-woman.
Why not; wheres your stereoypical threesome fantaxy?

There is a such thing as domestic partnership...I believe it comes in to play after about 10 years of a man and woman living together in some states.
Not into threesomes with a sig. other.
Good for you.

"It is soo focked up and complex."
Definitely requires some getting used to, that's for sure.
I think of the time I met the first gay person years ago. I can still recall my feelings of discomfort at the time.
Anyway, it is what it is. Got to look at the positive points - like the ones I mentioned above for myself.
They should be allowed to marry. Everywhere. Who does it hurt?
Besides, they're having entirely too much fun. Nothing like a dose of married life to take the wind outta those sails. I feel that everyone should have equal opportunity to be miserable and suicidal. smile
Toro: "I'm not sure how I feel on the subject"
What? On gay marriage? Or domestic partnership (whatever that is)?
If your statement was in relation to gay marriage, how does it affect you if two men or women chose and are ALLOWED to get married? Why can't two people be happy and / or marry no matter what?
My gosh, the narrow-mindedness never ceases to amaze me.
I'll just tell you honey, gay people aren't thinking about straight people. Nope, they're usually too busy getting on with their lives and having fun.
I agree with Sea Siren... Right on sista!
Ahh, by the way SR, i don't know which porn you have been watching, but most girl-leaning girls that i know wouldn't waste their time with a guy... They know what they can get from a woman!
Err, i'd just like to say, most Californian 'straight' men were probably safe the whole time anyway.
It never ceases to amaze me how straight people assume that every gay person is interested in them.
ROFL.
"most girl-leaning girls that i know wouldn't waste their time with a guy"
Talkin' about those late bloomers, honey....
"SERIOUSLY!!!!!!!"
Excuse me, Aqua Boy, but are you officially 100% gay now or still bi?
"Personally, i think gay guys are alot more attractive than straight ones, because they take care of their bodies and appearance more, where as alot of straight men get beer belly's by the time their 30"
Boo. Hiss. Boo.
:: from all the straight metrosexuals out there ::
I dont recall responding to you on any subject TORO.
Does the homosexual gene come embedded with shallowness?
Please go find your spectacles and put them on.

LOL...Toro they were written by Mgirl...not Lady_M
Blame it on the M smile
Please go back to where your digging up the logic for this so called rant towards Lady_M and look at the actual poster who wrote it.

Your dismissed.
No Problem smile
"I think its great. Hopefully all the other states will do the same. Why shouldn't they have the same rights as everyone else in this country?"
It should have happened long ago. This country is painfully young and still clings to bible-based ignorance.
I have to chime in on this because a friend and I were just talking about this. I think it was a mistake on the gay communities part to continue to pursue marriage after being granted domestic partnerships. After all, it is the perfect alternative to marriage. I'll be the first to say that I don't know all the details to it, but my understanding is that partners are treated the same way as spouses. At my job, here in LA, they can have them on their insurance policies etc., pretty much everything as a spouse. So why take it further when they could have the benefits of marriage and avoid all the pitfalls - divorce. A marriage is 2 people standing in front of God (or whatever you call her smile ) and saying we're going to spend the rest of their lives together. You do not need the governments approval for that. What you DO need the government approval for is to get out of it. Here's where they are facing problems. Not every state allows Gay Marriages so when they travel to another state to get married and once they decide to divorce they have to go back to that state to divorce. Only there are some states (MA for one) that won't allow divorces for non residents. You have to live there a year in order to file for divorce. A lot of gay people are realizing that until your state actually allows the marriage there's really no way out of it unless you're willing to move to the state that performed the marriage.
Anyway, I totally agree with the statement that I wish straight people were allowed Domestic Partnerships. With the divorce rate being at 50% (gays will be no better at it) why enter into it when you have this great alternative. We need some straight to get together and start a petition or something.
""It never ceases to amaze me how straight people assume that every gay person is interested in them.
ROFL.""
