Marriage Between One Man, Another Man, and a Woman?

[Dos Equis]

Isn't this the next step?  Not just polygamy, but a "bisexual" man marrying a woman and a man?

Sure, why not...  once you open up that Pandora's box all sorts of people out there will be clamoring for their "right" to "marry" in whatever way they wish to define it.  It's just a matter of time.

[Hereford]

I am going to marry my cat.

I'm going to the Social Security office today to get an SSN for her.

You bigots can't take away my rights 

[Deicide]

I don't care who gets married but I think all married people should be stripped of all tax benefits and associated privileges. Why are married people more special than people who are not married? The same people who enjoy all the marriage entitlements complain about entitlements for other people and other things; I say get rid of all the entitlements. If marriage is that special there should be no bonuses for being married; all married people should be thrilled just to be married.

I want to marry Shania Twain.

Pandora's Box is right.  We really are moving towards a state of confusion IMO.

Since you are thrilled to be married I am sure you would not object to the loss of all your special entitlements for that status? No?

Of course I object to your hypothetical question that will never happen.  But that's not why I created the thread.

Why should you get special privileges just because you are married?

Personally, I couldn't give less of a shit

Why do you care what other people do or want to do?

It has no effect on you so why not just mind your own business

Totally agree Straw; you are the man; I don't give a shit if two gays want to marry or if a brother and sister do either; it has nothing to do with me. I just want to do my thing and be left alone; more power to others who want to fuck the same sex or their sibling.

Personally I couldn't give less of a shit either, I can't see it from my backyard.

BUT that's a classic lame old argument.  The fact is that no man is an island.  Society is obviously made up of individuals.  Individual actions affect society as a whole.  And individual disorder and chaos spreads into societal chaos.  That's just how it works.  A "state of confusion" as Beach Bum put it.  A deterioration of order and civilization in society in general.  This is how it starts.

Absolutely correct.  

Also, this isn't about what people do in the privacy of their bedrooms, which I don't care about (if it involves consenting adults), it's about using the government to legitimize certain behaviors, conduct, etc.

Why do people who are against gay marriage always conflate it with polygamy, incest, beastiality etc...?

The question is, why don't you?  What's the difference in your mind?

You don't think a brother or sister should be allowed to marry?

[Dos Equis]

lol.  That's where we are headed. 

[Deicide]

Where do you get the right to dictate to others what they can and can't do? Would you like it if the government created an anti-blowjob law and started patroling households to make sure it didn't happen and your wife got arrested while sucking your dick?

I don't care what others do as long as it doesn't affect me. I am a Libertarian. Two siblings fucking each other has nothing to do with me. It's not my thing but then again religious maniacs running around picketing the funerals of dead soldiers isn't my thing either.

I have no more or no less rights to "dictate to others what they can and can't do" than any other voter.  That's where we get our laws.  Society makes judgments and passes laws to regulate conduct.  That's why you can't have sex with a child.

At least once you marry your cat, you'll get more pussy than you are now.   

[Straw Man]

personally, no but only for the obvious genetic reasons.  

if some brother and sister want to fuck and have kids than some law ain't gonna stop them.

Personally, I don't care what anyone does if it's between consenting adults and doesn't infringe on my rights

[Straw Man]

animals can't consent and incest creates genetic problems - but then you probably already knew that.

[Straw Man]

I've got a simple solution to this non-problem.

Heterosexual Marriage leads to Homosexual Marriage (this must be true - where else would gays get the idea)

We must simply outlaw marriage for Heterosexuals and then we'll all be safe

That's my point. Not for me but to each his own. Fucking religious idiots have to go and impose their delusions on everyone else though...
