Being pro gay marriage makes me more conservative, not less. There are people who want to build strong, two parent families and I can't see why we can't include them in our society. I am far more troubled by the fact that we have so many daycare, babysitter, nanny raised children, single parent homes and abortions than I am by the fact that there is a group out there that wants to be a part of traditional marriage. Just because something offends you personally doesn't give you the right to tell others how to live. The thought of what my pasty skinned, pot bellied, middle aged hetero neighbors had to do to be blessed with their offspring makes me shudder to the core of my being. (And, yes, I am aware that they probably feel the exact same way about me.) But as long as "it" is between consenting adults, the rest of us should leave well enough alone. Personally, I look forward to adding to the number of families where the parents are actually married and want to take responsibility for raising families with love and attention.
