17 year-old Vermonster on Marriage Equality
 
Kudos to this articulate young man for having the cojones to speak up (and "out") at this meeting!

Saw this yesterday. Quite the young man.

But I think VerMONSTER is a poor precident for labeling the gay lad who objects to the term, "That's so gay."





BTW, for those who don't know -- Vermont's Senate overwhelmingly passed same-sex marriage in recent days, and the matter goes to their House, which is also expected to pass it. Then to the governor's desk, who is against the measure ... but there's a good chance he'll "punt" - i.e., not sign nor veto, and the measure would then become law in Vermont - - making the first state to insititute civil unions for gays also the first state to start up gay marriage without being ordered by a court to do so.


Go Vermont!!

You're reading waaaaay too much into that! "Vermonster" merely refers to a citizen of Vermont. I did not make that term up.

After reading thge article, I too was confused why you were calling him a monster; and thought that you must have made a typo.

If someone from Vermont is called a Vermonster,
and if someone from Oregon is called an Oregonian,
and if someone from Florida is called a Floridian,
and if someone from New York is called a New Yorker,

what do we call someone from Utah?


Spoiler:


A Mormon

Well, a person in a gang is a gangster
A person in the mob is a mobster
So, it would seem that a person in Vermont is a Vermonster

I went to college with a guy from Vermont. He told me the term. Talk to him.
