"Gay spouses... have no tedious obligations towards in-laws, need never worry about Oedipus or Electra, won't have to face a menacing set of brothers or aunts should they betray their spouse."
HA. AHAHAHA. Oh man, that's side-splittingly funny. You mean, I didn't really help out my partner's family through heart attacks and long dying processes and funerals and awkward trips to Texas and financial crises and all that? That was all in my imagination? Boy, is my face red! I guess I better go let my MIL know that our relationship is null because some douchebag has decided queers don't go to Thanksgiving or family reunions or wakes. We spring from the split foreheads of our fathers, wearing boas and singing showtones!
Bitch to the plz. I have a family. My partner has a family. We love the people who made us, just like you straights do. I think your fantasy of what gays and lesbians' lives are like (all sex and parties and corruption of the norm, all the time!) is way more interesting than the reality. And so yeah, I'd still like that marriage equality, thank you. Dick.
