He is divorced with four kids across three moms.

Just zero fucking self awareness it blows my fucking mind. Maybe you should fix your own shitty life before judging others.

I never got this stance.

If you don't agree with gay sex then dont have sex with a gay person.

Problem solved.


It'd be like someone saying "Cheese doesn't agree with me." then demanding that nobody else on Earth eats cheese because it makes him vomit an shit everywhere.

Here's a little fact of life: Unless you are raped which is very very unlikely to occur, you will never have a cock in your mouth if you don't want one.

It's really that simple.

^ Hey now that's completely unfair.

He simply doesn't agree with it. Does that mean he's going to judge people for it?

"It's just not my thing" is fine if he wasn't someone who voted against it. If he voted against it and doesn't believe anyone should be able to get one it ceases being "just not my thing". Of course it isn't his thing he isn't gay.

What does him being a shitty spouse have to do with gay marriage?


When you delve into the typical reasoning for why people think this way it's usually the same things:

1) marriage is sacred
2) marriage is between a man and a woman because that's how god intended it
3) marriage needs to be between a man and a woman because that's the best family unit
4) gay people won't be able to look after children properly

Obviously, this guy is neither fulfilling his sacred vows or even measuring up to the "best family unit" when he's knocking up chicks left and right and parenting just becomes a matter of whether he can dodge the alimony payments craftily enough.

It's pretty easy to assume. Why would anyone who isn't gay need to proclaim they don't want to get a gay marriage? If it's just a personal thing and he has no problem with others doing it is it really something that needs to be announced?

people tend to disagree with same sex marriage on some sanctity of marriage type thing. them divorcing undoes that line of reasoning. til death do us part.

but we don't actually have that reasoning from this coworker yet.

Though It's probably worse if he dislikes gay marriage and doesn't even have a religious reason for it.

It really depends on how the conversation evolved to the point where we're talking political views on homosexuals.

Disclaimer: I support gay marriage.

When it all comes down to it, people dislike gay marriage because it's icky. OK, well a similar logic can be applied to incestuous relationships. Yet, neither affects you. But same sex marriage is legal and incestuous marriage is not.

For the sake of this argument, let's say that the same sex marriage is between two brothers. So we have gay incestuous marriage, ho boy. Both are consenting adults, and whatever they do they keep to their bedrooms. Why is the first part legal and the second part illegal?

You can apply a similar logic to something like bestiality. Is it something about the ickiness factor where you've crossed a line, therefore it's illegal?

The biggest difference between gay marriage and incest is that one is has a much greater likelihood of passing on birth-defects. Even taking kids off the table, incest, like polygamy, is much more likely to lead to abuse as familial relationships often lead to very unbalanced power dynamics between the people involved. Two siblings might seem to be in a consensual relationship, but one sibling could very easily have undue influence over the other that spans their entire lives to have influenced the other to that position. It makes consent murky at best. Combine that with the genetic piece and they make it illegal.

Bestiality is much more cut and dry. An animal is not capable of giving consent. Period. It should never be compared to relationships between people.

The only time you can correlate him to being a hypocrite is if he said something stupid like "Gay marriage will destroy the institute of marriage!" only then bringing up divorce is viable. I mean it's very possible he doesn't believe in marriages anymore as well because he got a bunch of divorces.
