i’m pretty suspicious of marriage, but that is extremely fucked up. to every single person who has ever voted against gay marriage (or gay adoption, or anti-discrimination laws that protect based on sexuality):
i wouldn’t want you around my children or siblings or friends or anyone i care about. i know you have your reasons, and i don’t doubt that you think you’re doing the right thing, but when your right thing (re)enforces discrimination, when it breaks people’s hearts, or makes life harder for people, or appeals to extremists in a way that means more violent attitudes and actions, then take a look at what you’re being taught. take it apart. put it back together in a way that means you’re doing the least amount of harm. reject beliefs that hurt.
