1) Being gay is not natural. Real Americans always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses, polyester, liposuction and air conditioning.
2) Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay, in the same way that
hanging around tall people will make you tall.
3) Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy
behavior. People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has
legal standing and can sign a marriage contract.
4) Straight marriage has been around a long time and hasn't changed
at all; women are still property, blacks still can't marry whites,
and divorce is still illegal.
5) Straight marriage will be less meaningful if gay marriage were
allowed; the sanctity of Brittany Spears' 55-hour just-for-fun
marriage would be destroyed.
6) Straight marriages are valid because they produce children. Gay
couples, infertile couples, and old people shouldn't be allowed to
marry because our orphanages aren't full yet, and the world needs
more children.
7) Obviously gay parents will raise gay children, since straight
parents only raise straight children.
8) Gay marriage is not supported by religion. In a theocracy like
ours, the values of one religion are imposed on the entire country.
That's why we have only one religion in America.
9) Children can never succeed without a male and a female role model
at home. That's why we as a society expressly forbid single parents
to raise children.
10) Gay marriage will change the foundation of society; we could
never adapt to new social norms. Just like we haven't adapted to
cars, the service-sector economy, or longer life spans...

TO ALL THOSE WHO THINK HOMOPHOBIA IS WRONG AND WANT TO FIGHT FOR A BETTER
FUTURE FOR OUR GAY AND LESBIAN FRIENDS, PLEASE REPOST THIS INTO YOUR PROFILE.
I am the girl who got kicked out of her home because I confided in my mother
that I am a lesbian.
I am the prostitute working on the streets because nobody will hire a
transsexual woman.
I am the sister who holds her gay brother tight through the painful
tearfilled nights.
I am the man who died alone in the hospital because they would not let my
partner of twentyseven years into the room.
I am the fosterchild who wakes up with nightmares of being taken away from
the two fathers who are the only loving family I have ever had.
I am one of the lucky ones, I guess. I survived the attack that put me in a
coma for three weeks, and in another year I will probably be able to walk
again.
I am not one of the lucky ones. I killed myself just weeks before graduating
from highschool. It was just too much to bear.
We are the couple who had the realtor hang up on us when she found out we
wanted to rent a onebedroom for two men.
I am the person who never knows which bathroom I should use if I want to
avoid getting management called on me.
I am the mother who is not allowed to even visit the children I bore, nursed,
and raised. The court says I am an unfit mother because I now live with
another woman.
I am the domesticviolence survivor who found the support system suddenly grow
cold and distant when they found out that my abusive partner is also a woman.
I am the domesticviolence survivor who has no support to turn to because I am
male.
I am the father who has never hugged his son because I grew up afraid to show
affection to other men.
I am the homeeconomics teacher who always wanted to teach gym until someone
told me only lesbianshat.
I am the man who died when the paramedics stopped treating me as soon as they
realized I was transsexual.
I am the person who feels guilty because I think I could be a much better
person if I did not alwyas have to deal with society hating me.
I am the man who stopped attending church, not because I don't believe, but
because they closed their doors to my kind.
I am the person who has to hide what this world needs most; love.
I am the son who is afraid of telling his loving, Christian parents I love
another male.
PLEASE REPOST THIS IF YOU BELIEVE HOMOPHOBIA IS WRONG. PLEASE DO YOUR PART TO
END IT.
