I'm pretty sure she would have been utterly offended and disgusted by you calling her beliefs absurd and bullshit, too.
- druscilla; smiles.:
- As for the "it can't" statement, I am completely and utterly offended and disgusted. If marriage works so fucking well for heterosexual couples, why do fifty percent of them end in divorce?
Also, just some three-second research into gay marriage divorce rates:
Sweden had 1526 gay partnerships between 1995 and 2002.
The Institute for Marriage and Public Policy did a survey in Sweden: Gay male couples were 50% more likely to divorce within an eight-year period than heterosexual couples.
Lesbian couples, 167% more likely.
Maybe they're bad statistics, maybe the reserch is biased. To be frank, I haven't checked.
Just to ask, how accurate a statistic is the "50% of marriages end in divorce"?
