SCOTUS protects marriage equality

Can anyone tell me why some people get so upset about same sex couples marrying?

It has absolutely no effect on your marriage. It also has no effect on your life. If 2 people love each other, why the fuck do you care that they get married?
Well there is one reason and it's religious. According to certain beliefs, it will bring the destruction.
 
If someone enters a civil union, and someone asks if they are married, should they say "No, we are civilly unioned?

Yes, it is a marriage. And FYI, marriage is not necessarily a religious institution.
"marriage" is a word coopted by religion but it was a word created in civic society and NOT tied to any religions but religions can no more claim it for all use then the Boys Club of America could. Groups do not get to claim words and then apply their own exclusive definition to them.
 
How long does the newly married couple have to procreate before their marriage is dissolved?

No, it is not about procreation. Nothing in the typical marriage vows mentions children. There are plenty of married couples without children. Should they be forced to divorce?

Nobody believes a requirement to have kids is a requirement otherwise they would focus and ban men and women who are known to be infertile from marrying, even if they heterosexual, and they do not want to do that and have never tried, thus proving what they say is bullshit and they do not believe it.

MAGA morons only want to gay bash. Correct that marriage isn't necessarily a religious right. A couple can walk up to the country clerk's office and be married there. It's a legal contract recognized by the government for legal reasons such as survivorship, property ownership, taxes, etc.

HATE,

It really is that simple.

A percent of people in society have ALWAYS needed someone to direct hate at and gays were it for the longest time before they were given 'brown people' by Trump and then 'trans people' also by Trump.

It seems to me a number slightly below 30% of society (in US) just have this HATE that needs to be fed all the time.
 
So marriage is just a made up word and no definition of it can be taken seriously?

You're nuts, Q-tip...
I have a news flash for you, and that is ALL WORDS ARE MADE UP. That is an absolute truth. You can look up when most words were first made up.

The nutty person is you or anyone like you who says "I alone get to dictate what the definition of the word is".

If you get to do that, so to does everyone else and then all definitions are equally valid. A nutty person says 'no, only mine is'.

The statement is about civil unions. The newly civilly-unioned couple can remain civilly-unioned for as long as they wish without procreating.

No, it is not about procreation.
Procreating absolutely is about procreating.

Nothing in the typical marriage vows mentions children.
Correct.

There are plenty of married couples without children.
Correct. Marriage is about potential for procreation.
 
Yes they were. In fact, I know a lesbian couple who tried to get married in the early 1980s and were refused.

And yes, it is about marriage. There are numerous benefits bestowed on married couples. It is not about the couple, but about the marriage.

And before anyone starts the screaming about children, none of those benefits require having children.
If they were refused it wasn't because they were gay, you dimwitted inbred donkey. Could two straight guys get married back then? Please don't whine about why would two straight guys want to get married. First want has nothing to do with marriages just like children so stfu. Next maybe they may want the "benefits" of marriage. Fact is they weren't refused marriage because they were gay. Idiot
 
Its funny, when the haters and bigots are no longer allowed to go out beating up queers,
Who said anything about beating up queers?

I'm simply differentiating between the (in principle) ability to procreate (man & woman) and the (in principle) inability to procreate (man & man, woman & woman). One of those things is a 'marriage', while the other two things are cheap imitations of marriage (IOW, "I identify as a marriage"), much like how some men will claim "I identify as a woman". These silly claims are made in order to become a member of a protected LGBTQLMNOPALPHABETSOUP+ class of people who desire SUPREMACY over others.
they claim they are fighting for sumpremacy.
The LGBTQLMNOPALPHABETSOUP+ movement is all about supremacy. All outsiders MUST recognize men as women, women as men, children as people to be groomed, and men sticking their penises up other men's buttholes (and women rubbing up against other women and/or sticking dildos up themselves) as equivalent to one man and one woman having sex (the in-principle ability to procreate). These are all perversions.
Yes, they ARE being denied something (or were).
They aren't (and weren't) being denied anything other than what they actively chose to deny.
They could not marry the person they loved.
... only because they actively chose to enter into a civil union rather than a marriage.
 
If someone enters a civil union, and someone asks if they are married, should they say "No, we are civilly unioned?
Yes.

And feel free to come up with whatever word you wish; just don't commandeer the word 'marriage' and pretend that man/man or woman/woman is equivalent to man/woman because it's not.
Yes, it is a marriage.
No, it isn't.
And FYI, marriage is not necessarily a religious institution.
Irrelevant. Regardless, man/man and woman/woman cannot procreate (not even in principle). Only man/woman can procreate.
 
No, it is not.
Yes, it is.
Having children is not limited to married couples.
Having children is limited to a man and a woman.
And many same sex couples procreate.
You very well might make the podium this month for this doozy.
It is not possible for a man/man or a woman/woman to procreate.
They have to involve another person (or at least some of their cells).
IOW, a man needs to involve a woman and a woman needs to involve a man. Ergo, only a man and a woman can procreate.
But when straights couples do the same, you somehow feel it is blessed.
Why wouldn't I?

Right. It is about the (in principle) potential to procreate.
Nothing in the typical marriage vows mentions children.
Irrelevant.

True. So?
Should they be forced to divorce?
Why would you even think that?
