So basically you're saying "stop having an opinion that isn't ours".

    did i say that? no. But your acting like there isnt a problem when there is; american civil unions are not viewed as equal to marriages; and they aren't. you telling us "why are you complaining" just makes you look like an ass

      Yeah, except that I conceded quite early on that the US is different and I was talking from a NZ POV, and then asked if you'd make the same argument if you lived in NZ where civil unions are the same as marriage.

        I think the heat of the arguement was getting to me then :/ sorry , personally i'd only take issue if marriage was still seen as better.

          But here's the thing. is the NZ thing REALLY equal? Can gays marry? That's all I want to know. or are they too different to be allowed to marry?

              so I googled. NZ does NOT allow gay marriage. "marriage" is "special" for straights only. how can you not see that this makes gays less, Ace? they dont' get to play with your toys. they are not good enough. why? ONE REASON ONLY.

              They are gay. (black, muslim, women, etc.) it's bigotry.

                Well for something you claim is so horribly bigoted the populace seems pretty docile, happy and calm about it.

                  AceModerator22:04, 9 May 2012

                  That's cause it's better than it was, not cause it's equal. Have you asked gay NZers if they are really "fine" with not having the same status as straights?

                  Tell me why it's ok to tell gays they cannot marry. you keep avoiding that.
