DisRuptive1 Posted June 28, 2004 Report Share Posted June 28, 2004 I just remember hearing gays say that they should have a "right" to marry. So I'm curious if I help the rights of others by helping gays have the right to marry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one expects you to take them literally and act on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
