76. Are homosexual couples more serious about their relationships?
... it is hypocritical to "protect" marriage from gays and lesbians when there are too many heterosexuals that don't take their vows seriously. By the way, lots of them are in the Repuke Party.

I can't disagree with you about heterosexual marriages, but I wonder if there are any numbers about gay couples who split up after many years or who cheat on their partners.

I certainly don't think homosexual couples are necessarily doing any worse than heterosexual couples are doing, but I think they are people like the rest of us, with all the same strengths and weaknesses.

I suspect that when the day finally comes that homosexuals enjoy all the rights and responsibilities of marriage they will take their vows as seriously as heterosexual couples do... that being, some seriously and others not so seriously.
