• Will you marry me

  Yes, it's been months, AGAIN, but I'm here now and that's all that counts.  Recently, I was a mother of the bride.  It wasn't as exciting as I thought, but it was moving just the same.  Here is a photo of the bride

   

  Here is a photo of her dad,( expunged) and me

  

  I think we look related, which is weird,

  Who can get married in the US.?  

  Everyone, except

  Children- Children can't get married because they are Children.

  Animals,- Animals can't get married, because they are animals, unless they are dogs, and it's pretend.  Like this couple

  

  I picked these two because they are the colors of my two, and similar looking, ( I got another one since my last blog).  My two are boys though, so they can't get married in Il. even pretend, because they are both boys.  And brothers, even though not blood related.

  Siblings- because there is no movement for sibling marriage because 99.% of society thinks that's gross.

  Inanimate objects- because they are inanimate, unless, again, it's pretend like this couple-

  

  Plants- because that's silly.

  Gay couples- because it makes some people uncomfortable.

  I am divorced.  I am allowed to be divorced because legal marriage is a legal contract and you are allowed to break legal contracts sometimes.  And a legal contract is not the same as church, which frowns on divorces for the most part. Or temple, which may or may not frown on divorce, I'm not sure.

  Divorce isn't the best for kids but Dr.Phil says kids would rather be from a broken home than live in one, and that makes sense to me.  Just like I think it's better to live in a loving same sex parent situation than in a house where your parents are opposite sex but the dad beats up the mom, and or/ molests the kids. But Il. disagrees and Il. is the best state ever.  Except not really because our Governors go to jail and they don't have to go to the icky half way house when they get out, because they were Governors once and that means they are special.  

  child molesters are allowed to get married and if you beat your first wife you can still marry another women after that as long as you get a divorce first.  

  You can even murder people, like your parents, and get married in prison.  But usually only to the opposite sex because same sex is unnatural.

  If your religion or non religion doesn't care if you are the same sex and get married, it's still mostly not allowed because some religions say no, and you are allowed to mix church and state if you want.  Even though the constitution says that is a no-no.

  I'm not sure why, but it's true.

   

  1967

  The U.S. Supreme Court unanimously overturns Pace v. Alabama (1883), ruling in Loving v. Virginia that state bans on interracial marriage violate the Fourteenth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution.

  As Chief Justice Earl Warren wrote for the Court:

  "There is patently no legitimate overriding purpose independent of invidious racial discrimination which justifies this classification. The fact that Virginia prohibits only interracial marriages involving white persons demonstrates that the racial classifications must stand on their own justification, as measures designed to maintain White Supremacy ...

  "The freedom to marry has long been recognized as one of the vital personal rights essential to the orderly pursuit of happiness by free men ... To deny this fundamental freedom on so unsupportable a basis as the racial classifications embodied in these statutes, classifications so directly subversive of the principle of equality at the heart of the Fourteenth Amendment, is surely to deprive all the State's citizens of liberty without due process of law. The Fourteenth Amendment requires that the freedom of choice to marry not be restricted by invidious racial discriminations. Under our Constitution, the freedom to marry, or not marry, a person of another race resides with the individual and cannot be infringed by the State."

  From this point on, interracial marriage is legal throughout the United States

  This does not apply to gay people though.  They don't have a right to persue happiness.  even though ironically, gay, used to mean happy. They are allowed to be unhappy with the opposite sex though, even though I wouldn't like to be married to a woman, because I'm not attracted to them and they can be very bitchy.

  But I don't have that problem, phew.

  I can get married to a man, and I can divorce him later, because that's allowed.

  Pretty soon Gay couples may be able to get married in Il. because the law might change.  Some people won't like this and think that will ruin their own marriage and Il. as a state, even though it won't and Il. is already ruined.

  My grandchildren, who I don't have yet, will probably be able to marry whoever they want, unless it's a child or table.  And most likely, not a rose bush either because that's silly.  

  if my grandchild, who isn't born yet, is a boy and wants to marry another boy when they grow up, I don't care because I want people to be happy and if you are born gay it's very hard to be happy with a partner who makes you want to throw up.

  some people say that you are born an alcoholic but you shouldn't drink and if you are born gay you shouldn't love either because both are bad.  

  But gay doesn't ruin your liver as far as I know, which is gross if you ever knew someone with a fried liver.  And gay sexual acts don't cause car accidents, unless you are doing it in the car, while you are driving, and some straight people do that because I read that somewhere.  And I'm sorry I gave you that visual, but some gay people are smarter than straight people and realize that's dangerous.

  People are very concerned about gay marriage, because it makes them uncomfortable.  Or their Church says gay acts are sin even though the bible says a lot of stuff and some of it is not cool. 

  You are allowed to pick and choose in the Bible because you just are.  For example, you used to have to stone kids who where disrespectful to their parents, but now you can't even throw pebbles at them because they will call the cops and your ass will be hauled off to jail.  Instead, parents have to pretend that their kids are not rude, little, brats ,because jails are still not fun.

  Someone's church isn't supposed to decide what's legal, but some people think that's the same.

  People are not concerned about child molesters getting married because they usually marry the opposite sex and that's not unnatural.  

  I don't want to get married again.  But the general consensus is, (and by general I mean my mom and boss,) that I should get married for financial security.  I think both are thinking Jewish, because a lot of Jews have money and that's not being anti-Semitic, it's just true.

  I don't want to though, because I am not attracted to ALL men, even if they have money, and even though I am not gay. That would make me unhappy, ( if I wasn't attracted to them) but financially secure, unless there was a pre-nup and I got divorced which is allowed, but means I get nothing.  Which means I would be trapped and I wouldn't like trapped.

  So I choose to stay single, because I have a choice.   

  The End
