1. Then straight marriage can't work either ...

what a wanker.

[NorthCarolina]

4. Exactly

Right out of the box with the correct observation.:hi:

[Creideiki]

14. Then...uh...how about the lesbians?

Seriously. It's like saying that HIV is God's punishment for homosexuality when lesbians have the lowest infection rate.

Creep.

[gaspee]

15. I guess he thinks

it's OK for men to prey on women.

Idiot.

[terrya]

2. That's his opinion

Rather sweeping generalization there, I think.

[LeftHander]

3. I guess that source is worthy.....

Entertainment news is not news.

[xchrom]

5. must be the reason straights divorce rates are so high, yes?

[DarkTirade]

6. So... there are no men in straight marriages?

I'm a wee bit confused here...

[FreepFryer]

7. He strikes me as a guy in a sad situation, I'm hoping he finds some peace of mind. (n/t)

8. And somehow, that makes it right to deny marriage for two women?

Wow, talk about missing the obvious. :eyes:

[Zuiderelle]

9. Women are often an afterthought.

Gay women have less of a chance of getting HIV than heterosexuals, less than any other (sexually active) group, yet claims that homosexuality is dangerous is such a popular weapon with these kind of people.

The same kind who think women belong at home, think only about men when it comes to "gay." By this argument, gay women would be the best partners, best parents, and physically and emotionally healthiest kind of relationship to have. (I disagree with the general premise though, as I have known just as many male partner relationships as female partner relationships, and have never noticed much of a difference.)

10. If men are too predatory

Then thank the Goddess for Lesbians, who must save marriage all by themselves I guess.

[JackBeck]

11. He's in the middle of a nasty fight with his boyfriend.

His opinion is being informed by his personal experiences and should not be taken as any more than that.

Apparently, his guy was screwing rent boys bareback, and then posted a homemade sex video that the duo made. So, it there's anyone that's "bitter" right now, it would be Mr. Burns.

[terrya]

13. Thanks for posting the story behind his comments

Hell, if that happened to me, I'd sure as hell would be bitter about marriage.

Of course, my beautiful guy wouldn't be so colossally stupid and irresponsible as that guy was.

12. Uh, Pete Burns?

Girlfriend has issues. I mean, come on. He's had more surgeries to distort his appearance than Jocelyn Wildenstein and Michael Jackson combined. And recycles that horrid "You Spin Me Round" over and over--it's the only hit he ever had.

[Fearless]

16. Clearly it HAS worked, so he's a dipshit.

[closeupready]

17. He was a fun character back in the day, but

he's obviously a little messed up.

And it's a little rich for him to talk about promiscuity among gays when his schtick was performing songs with titles containing sexual double entendres like (not making these up) "I wanna be a toy" and "come inside". And of course, the well-known "you spin me round like a record".

[Toasterlad]

18. What a Stupid, Selfish Asshole.

You couldn't make your marriage work, so automatically no two men can? What twisted, asinine logic. His ex-wife AND ex-husband should take turns kicking him in the balls for about five hours.

[davidinalameda]

19. if Pete Burns can't make it work, who can

BTW, who is Pete Burns?

[closeupready]

20. 80's band Dead or Alive's lead singer.

21. Bitter much, Pete?

I went through a phase after my last break-up when I considered all gay men lying pieces of shit who couldn't commit and were pretty much at the mercy of their gonads.

But here's the difference, Pete: I got over it.
