sex is not a requirement of marriage. What part of that do you not understand?But a consenting adult is part of the marriage contract. Not sex, I agree. That is why two people should be able to marry no matter their gender. What part of consenting does a goat fit into?

Originally Posted by WTFAside from the fact that I don't understand why you keep insisting on a contract I must also disagree that the marriage must be consentual. As I said earlier.

Following that logic, if Jake wants to marry his goat or I want to marry my pocket watch then that should be acceptable. No?
The government needs to stay out of it.I may have to fall in love with you .
IT IS FUCKING SPORTS.
The gay marriage is a non-issue, it is a state choice. If you do not like what a majority of people decide in that state; go to a different state. there are 49 more of them. Or, you can choose to stay and put your money where your "thoughts" are and fund a get out the vote and change it IN YOUR STATE.
The federal government does not issue marriage licenses. Originally Posted by The2Dogs

If only one person consents it is either slavery or rape, depending on the act. Originally Posted by WTF

I just thought it was funny that WTF started a thread called "Thoughts." Like he has any experience with them.

I am choosing to educate the uneducated on a hooker board! The state has no more businress in a personal ( such as marriage or who you play aganist in sports) choice than the Federal government does. It seems as if we are agreeing but you do not want to say so.

The two ideas are not related in any way other than one is about co-ed sports and one is about co-ed marriage.

Juanita Broaddrick, right, with residents of her Arkansas retirement home and Bill Clinton in April 1978, the same month she alleges that Clinton assaulted her Originally Posted by joe bloe
Not in this country, if you want to move to India then yes arranged marriages happen. In this country you do not have to enter into an arranged marriage.If an Indian couple living in America wants to arrange a marriage for their young daughter then you are in favor of discriminating against them. On what basis? Cultural, religious....What?
So yes in this country consent is a requirement. There are no laws making you get married aganist your will that I am aware of. You know something I don't in this regard?
No , neither the pocket watch gave consent nor the goat.

Clinton has a long record history of sexual predatory behavior and of course he is a documented pathological liar.
