But never forget, it's the gays that are ruining marriage.



http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-2684726/Would-tie-knot-total-stranger-Meet-couples-getting-MARRIED-sight.html

Six singles have agreed to legally tie the knot with a total stranger for Married at First Sight, a new reality series.

Billed as an 'extreme social experiment,' the show will follow the stories of three newlywed couples paired up by four experts:

All applicants were evaluated by a sexologist, a spiritualist, a psychologist and a sociologist, who narrowed down hundreds of possible matches.

In the premiere, which airs tonight on the FYI network, the participants will meet their future spouses for the first time - as they walk down the aisle.


Meanwhile, people in loving, committed relationships for DECADES are denied the right to marry. Fortunately, the country seems to be waking up and shrugging off the shroud of bigotry, with more and more states legalizing marriage equality. At long last.

With a 50% divorce rate for hetero marriages, the argument that gay marriage is a threat to traditional marriage is just downright laughable.

It was a "what's it like to live with someone else's family" show. Compared to this, it was a serious sociological experiment.

We still don't have the right to marry where we live. My sweetheart and I will be celebrating another anniversary this fall by traveling to Maryland to marry, though our marriage won't be recognized in WV once we return home.

But if you're heterosexual, marry a total stranger? Hey, no problem! Marry as many as you like, sight unseen!
