Loote kukur le aajkal pagal pagal kura garcha. How could marrying an animal can be called legal. A marriage can only takes place when both parties agree to marry . Do you think animal knows anything about marriage?

And we should not have problem when two person of same sex wants to stay together. And its pity that we have rediculing racist attitude towards homosexual . If they cannot like any person of opposite sex then we cannot force them to love person of opposite sex. Do you ever redicule any person who is born handicapped? Do you ever redicule a blind person because they cannot see like you? Do you redicule person who cannot walk like you ?

have you guys watched the documentary about FLDS, fundamantalist mormon, they practice incest...yuk..they even marry there own uncle and brother and in that community one man marry 15 or more wife.....Oh god i have watched the documentary.
and i think the head of the group is in FBI most wanted list. and its not even a week ,i saw in the news that these people kids were asking for rights, they were saying they should have rights of the way they are living..and in that community underage marriage is very common....
about marrying between cousin, it is common througout muslim country,some ethnic group of nepal and last tiime i was surprised to found south indians also practice it, my south indian friend told me people do practice it...

about gay marriage, it will take time to accept in the society like ours....everything flows with time...

I said gay is fine earlier but for some reason I really dont like how they did their marriage. its kinda disrespectful. Gay is fine, but the fashion of their marriage is disrespectful to culture.....ok

"its kinda disrespectful. Gay is fine, but the fashion of their marriage is disrespectful to culture."

And how exactly is it disrepectful?

bidhan,
well...if animal sex is possible why not marrying with animals? hehe...and it's not too hard to get their consent for marriage. it's just a matter of "nod"...these tamed dogs can do anything for their masters...hehe....obedience you see...hehe..
and i am NOT against gay marriage...and your juxtaposition of gays with handicapped people does not make sense. gays are not handicapped or mentally retarded or anything like that. they are just normal like straights.

to all others,

jokes apart (actually that was not hehe)..i would be more than happy if gay marriage is legalised. social approval is a different agenda and in a country like ours, it will take decades if not centuries. but i guess, legalisation should be done first...that will keep the negative mentality for gay marriage under check.

this is exactly where i wanted to come. social vs legal. which should come first?. i mean just as i said in case of gay marriage, the social perception will shape up in favor of them with time, but legalisation is necessary at the moment.

gay marriage is just an example we are facing today. it's the word "marriage" where the focus should be on. we should focus on its definition, form and manifestation. can it include all form of bondages?

so, if in case say fair amount of population practice "direct/indirect sibling marriage" (if that is the right terminology), why not legalise sibling marriage? (social approval may/will follow afterwards).

why not legalise marriage with animals? (ditto)
why not legalise any form of marriage that is/will be seen in the society?

let us redefine the word "marriage"....hehe....let it make more liberal and boundless. let it include anything and evreything :D

LooTe

Lootekukur - You are heading off topic again. I am tempted to comment on the point you raise about animals but talking about both in the same breadth will only make a mokcery of gays and derail this conversation. If you are so fascinated by the subject, I'd recomend a separate thread for it and I am sure people willl have interesting ideas to offer. Plus, this knack for abstract discussions that veer off course is precisely why it gets hard to have a meaningul dialogue on Sajha.

the bottom line is,,, Gay people are sucks,,,,,,,,, Mujhi bastard haru,,,, distraction of human
society. they abstract of human rule or system. We must band this ridiculous inhuman activities. It has adverse impact to our future generation. Comn' people be live as human not like an animal.

hehe..captain haddock.
i told you already, i may offend few with this topic... well if you think that this is off course and may hinder the respect for gays, i will open a new thread.


cheers
LooTe

How will it adversely impact our future generations? No one is talking here about 'converting' straights into gays, instead, the argument is for those already gay, letting them live a life of dignity and openess. Homosexuality is genetic. Heterosexual people will continue to get married and have kids the way they want. Legalizing gay marriage does not stop a man and a woman from getting married.
