The gays are coming! Run for your lives!

Today is April 3, 2009. I read this afternoon, in the New York Times (1), that my home state of Iowa has just become the third state in the U.S. where gay marriage is now legal.

Today also happens to be my sister's birthday. Bonne Fete Chantal! :)

My sister is a lesbian. Always has been, I think. So is my mother. Has not always been. A bad marriage, if bad enough, can do this to you. My father is... well no one knows where he is. He threw me out of his house when I was 16, then years later he just disappeared and no one has heard of him since.

I haven't had any contact with either of these three people in over 30 years, except for a few unsuccessful attempts at reconciliation. No cosmic ties.

This issue of "gay marriage" is sure to remain a hotly debated topic, now that Iowa - of all places - has made it legal. Something just tickles me though:

Some people get all hot under the collar about the "gays" wanting to have the same rights to get married that heterosexual couples enjoy in our society. I know that the Mormon Church is going to have a FIT because of this new legal development in Iowa.

I like to think I have a unique take on the whole "gay marriage" issue.

First, these "gays" are not trying to BOMB us. They're trying to get MARRIED.

Let's examine the difference between these two notions here:

See? And you thought this website was not scientific.

Second, look at it this way: Why should only heterosexual people have the right to find misery and ruin their lives within the sanctity of the marriage contract? I say, if gay people want to be as miserable as most of the heterosexual married people I've known, let them.

I remember the mess that my own parents' marriage was. I myself have been married three times, twice to the same woman. Most of the happy people I know are single. Some have children and some don't.

More than 50% of all marriages in the U.S. end in divorce. How happy and fulfilling is the other 50% of marriages? Hard to tell.

Marriages in countries like India and Pakistan are usually arranged marriages, so it's not clear how much of an option divorce is in such instances.

It appears rather clear to me that women are fed up with men. In view of the distinctly growing undercurrent of men-bashing websites and TV shows whose main thrust is to show women how to "empower themselves", "free themselves from the tyranny of men" and "become a strong independent liberated woman", in a "Join Us", "We the Women" kind of push, it appears rather clear to me that women are fed up with men. Do you know how many websites out there actually celebrate and glorify the "single mom lifestyle"?

Just this past week the Oprah Winfrey show discussed "Women who leave their man for another woman." This is mainstream television watched every day by MILLIONS of women in the U.S.

I am not making this up. I am not THAT GOOD of a writer.

I wish to make a prediction right here right now on this website:

I hereby predict that with artificial insemination, surrogate mothers, adoption, in the not so distant future, men and women will happily have and raise children without having to bother with the opposite sex.

To end this page, I want to leave you with a bit more "science", as is customary here on healingdaily.com. Little known fact: "artificial insemination" is a side-effect of some pharmaceutical drugs, as explained by the eminent Dr. Robin Williams in this 1-minute video:
