Yes, we can.

Visible iSm mojo.


I can't imagine how horrible it would be to love someone absolutely and be denied the same rights that other couples are afforded- you have to remember, this goes above and beyond simply pledging oneself to another. Heterosexual spouses have rights under the law that supersede parental; in other words, the family of one spouse can't deny you the right to see your loved one in the hospital, or take away material possessions should they pass, or .........the list goes on and on. Then there is the basic human dignity aspect which iSm addresses- it's absolute bull**** in this day and age that gay people have to hide their orientation or face serious persecution. I think this is just a sliver of the pile of merde they have to deal with in life, and I think it's flat out wrong. Not just from my own ethical standpoint, but legally as well. I really do believe this is the last frontier of civil rights and one who's time has finally come.
