Gay Marriage In New York, Everyone Relax...

Obviously everyone has heard that New York pretty much just approved same sex marriage. I have no idea why everyone is so pissed off about this though. Like if you're SO happy that it's been approved and you haven't voted on anything in your life, why are you making it like you're the most righteous person in the world for supporting it? Also, if you think it's wrong, how does that law affect your every day life in any way whatsoever? Exactly, it doesn't, so who gives a flying fuck? Just hear me out on this one and maybe you'll understand why I could really care less if they let gays get married or not.

Okay, so I understand that the institution of marriage is supposed to be strictly between a man and a woman. Says the Catholic church that most of us "catholics" including myself, haven't stepped foot in, in years . But let's get real, if gays want to be allowed to get married, then let them. Who gives a fuck? They don't know that marriage is nothing but pain and suffering, so why not let them figure it out on their own? If they want equal marriage rights then good, let them pay taxes and do shit like every straight married couple. Let them figure it out on their own when they realize, "Fuck, I only own half of this apartment," or "Shit, I have to share money with my spouse." Let them suffer just like every other married couple, straight or gay.

Trust me, soon they'll understand that things aren't peachy all the fucking time. They will be just like every straight married couple, hating each other after five years and regretting getting married. Treat them like a straight couple and let them learn on their own. It won't be everything they hoped it would be, it never is. Oh they want to adopt kids too? Awesome, because they don't realize kids are an expense and they'll be paying out the ass for them. The grass isn't always greener, so let them figure it out by themselves. If you're straight, this law effects your life as much as a tweet from Kim Kardashian stating that she is in New York. It has no effect whatsoever, so stop complaining, or stop boasting because you think you had something to do with getting the law passed. Give it some time, the gay marriage divorce rate will be through the roof. And even if it isn't, do you really care that much?
