Ah me. These old debates just go on and on. Ignoring the supposed (im)morality of the situation it is beyond reason that any two people in a long term relationship should have less legal rights than any other two people. I'll leave the moralilty aspect up to others cos I don't give a flying platypus as to the sex of those two people.
As to the issue of homosexuality itself the reality is that homosexuality is quite common in animal species throughout this planet of ours so why should we be any different ? It is no business of anyone elses as to who I or anyone else chooses to poke.
We don't have a lot of gay friends but I for one refuse point blank to condemn them in any way when I don't really think they are doing anything all that dastardly.
The debate is a silly one.
Monogamy on the other hand is slightly more difficult to come to terms with. Again I don't give a damn from a moral point of view but it seems to me that the green eyed jealousy monster makes polygamy unworkable unless the dominant (read male I presume) partner rules with an iron fist.
