Battling eternally against people who are against homosexual unions (gods, keep the name marriage as 'sacred' if you must - afterall, homosexuals who love each other are definitely going to destroy an institution which brought us 'who wants to marry a millionare?' and Britney's whimsical journey) has made me think that we're just not talking the same language. We seem to interpret things very differently.

Namely - value of 'sources'

Me: *puts forward reasoning why gays should be allowed unions*
Homophobic bigot: No, gays don't love each other!
Me: Yes we do.
HB: No they don't - look *pastes links to extremist bias websight* What's your source for homosexuals loving each other?
Me: Errr, me? A homosexual in love.
HB: HAH! See you have nothing to back up your claims!

Now let's get this clear. On the one hand we have a homosexual talking about the homosexual mindset. On the other we have a group of people who may have never even knowingly spoken to a homosexual - but because they can make a website and give themselves a group name (like 'Families for Homophobia' or 'Traditional Values for Violent Witch Hunts.' Or 'Religious Zealots out for a Theocratic Police State') their words carry more weight?

It's like the whole 'choice issue'. They're asking me for the 'gay gene' or some such - excuse me, I KNOW I didn't chose this because, IT IS MY HEAD, MY MIND. I KNOW I NEVER MADE THIS CHOICE. Why do I need a website made by straight people to back this up? Why does a straight guy know my thoughts feelings and emotions better than I do? (Plus I always reply - 'why no I never chose to be homosexual. Did you chose to be heterosexual?')

This childish post is brought to you by the artistically talentless creator of this journal who has feet instead of hands and will be eaten by his muses if he tries to draw them.

Yes, this post is merely to bitch about lack of artistic talent, now move on before he creates a scene.
