life in oz

i just read an article from an australian newspaper that says that a survey taken in 2006 came back with the result that most same-sex partners in oz didn't want marriage, or as they put it they didn't want a 'formal arrangement'.

what this goes to exemplify is the way that in this fucked up social swirly that we call the gay community there are a small group of people fucking it up for the rest of us. getting married might be sort of neat-o and shit but it's not something that a great majority of the gay community actively wants. but then we get those nose in the air jetta driving fags with the hrc sticker on the back of their cars (or the back of their necks) that like the poor kid eyeing the rich kid's sneakers burn with some sort of envy for everything that they haven't gotten or don't have. so they cry discrimination tearing at the collar of their express men v neck t shirt out of frustration and demand equality when most of the community is just fine without it.

now i do think that gay marriage is a good idea, but i don't like us begging and threatening and pleading and screaming for it. just like women's suffrage it will come in time and no amount of money from the gill foundation is going to speed that up.

rant rant rant poop.
