We pride ourselves on being ‘America the Free’, But how are we free when a he can’t marry a he? Homosexuality is found in over 90 species, but homophobia is only found in one. If you want to blame someone, blame the straight people. They’re the ones who keep having gay sons. Not one Disney princess is a lesbian, Not one superhero is gay. Not all girls want a prince charming. And not all men want a heroine someday. They say, "Love is blind." So why are we so blind to fact that love is love? What has America come to that we’d rather see men holding guns, than holding hands? Until recently, in the US military, admitting that you’re gay, had bans. Homosexuality isn’t a disease. You can’t catch it, and you can’t cure it. Please. Tiger Woods can have 19 mistresses, Britney Spears can have a 55 hour marriage, Kim Kardashian can get married for publicity, But GAYS are corrupting the institution of marriage? Closets are for clothes, not hiding.
