That's like saying, the only difference is the age, number of participants, or species. I think gender and the uniquely procreative potential of the union deserves much more respect than that. | Well you are also assuming that a heterosexual union is follows certain "standards". It doesn;t. Every union is in itself unique, regardless of whether it's a homo-or heterosexual union.
TO say that heterosexual unions are more "special" is purely a value judgement based on your preference for them. Fact is that a sizeable homosexual community find the homosexual union to be more "special". Is it fair that YOUR right to call it special should be codified by LAW whereas homosexuals aren't afforded that right.
It is every man and woman's choice what they consider to be "special". No legislation should infringe uponthat right. It would essentially be like having your constitution say that Islam is OK but Christianity is BETTER. Love for all, Hatred for none |
