npc24 Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 Well they finally legalized gay marriage in california today. I know that might not mean much to many of you on ena. its strange though, me and the ex talked about it so long ago, and he said "its gonna happen and i cant wait" he was so optimistic and so bright eyed about things. I was a cynic saying "it'll be a long time" and it got me thinking. Maybe i DID put up to many walls, and try to be the tough masculine guy on the outside that i grew up with. Now my sensitivity is all i have, and i wonder if i was negative while we were together. anyways, i can get married. It made me smile today Link to comment

eurocar Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 The day my state legalizes gay marriage is when Hell freezes over. Congrats, though! Link to comment
eurocar Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 eurocar which state? utah? One of the more fascist states in the country. Link to comment
m12988 Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 sometimes i think california is the only state with sense. They are always first to pass the good, smart laws. I wish i lived there. Link to comment
Sickboy48 Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 sometimes i think california is the only state with sense. They are always first to pass the good, smart laws. I wish i lived there. Actually, they are the second state to legalize it. Massachusetts was the first state, Goodridge v. Department of Health. Yeah a lot of my friends were really happy about this which is awesome.

greywolf Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 yeah it is a bittersweet day. My stepdad sent me a text telling me about it. and I was like, cool... but it doesn't matter so much now well it does matter, but it doesn't affect me directly anymore Link to comment
greywolf Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 One of the more fascist states in the country. hmmmm... probably one of those states where 'sodomy' is still a crime and you can go to jail for it if you're caught.... Link to comment
keenan Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 3 cheers for Cali! i'm in SF, and there were lots of parties here tonight. Link to comment
npc24 Posted May 16, 2008 Author Share Posted May 16, 2008 i celebrated tonight. it wasnt the same without porkchop, but at least i know that i can love the same as anyone else and smile knowing that now in my state im allowed to show it like everyone else Link to comment
eurocar Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 hmmmm... probably one of those states where 'sodomy' is still a crime and you can go to jail for it if you're caught.... Yep. But sodomy laws were ruled unconstitutional by the Supreme Court in 2003, so it's highly unlikely that any state or local prosecutor would prosecute for it. Link to comment
