Get over yourself fgs. That's exactly what Niamh is saying. What difference is there between marriage and civil partnership? None. So, the only difference is the word "married".

so then you also see no problem with black people drinking from separate water fountains, aslong as it's clean water it doesn't matter right??

are you actually saying you don't see the problem?? REALLY?

GET OVER MYSELF?? I DON'T SAY WHAT I SAY FOR MYSELF, I SAY WHAT I SAY FOR EVERY GAY KID THAT ISN'T HERE TO SAY IT FOR THEMSELF.

Considering the only thing that differentiates the two is the word "MARRIAGE" and plenty gay people continue to use that terminology regardless NO, I don't think it matters. There are far more important things in the world than PC fricking terminology.

if it doesn't matter then why is it separate????

you are wrong. there is nothing more important in the world than equal rights. You are a disgusting bigot to say to me that there are more important things in the world than MY equal rights. how dare you.

Why the feck are you asking me? Do I make the damn law?

I'm sick of being made out to be some kind of King Herod to your Jesus. All that I'm saying is, is it worth getting into such a state over TERMINOLOGY.

I agree with the other poster, comparing it to these other things is very desperate. If gays weren't allowed any kind of partnership full stop I'd see where you're coming from. Otherwise, I think you're overreacting.

The difference in terminology for gay people DOES NOT equate to the segregation of black people in past societies.

DO NOT call me a disgusting bigot. I NEVER said your rights aren't important. I stressed that you are getting irate over TERMINOLOGY.

Gay people can get married and HAVE THE EXACT SAME RIGHTS. It's just given a different title. Of course there's more important issues to address in the world than a title.

Again, if you can refrain from using personal insults when debating I'd happily answer your questions. Just because someone has a different opinion doesn't make them a bigot. Stop victimising yourself and engage in a discussion without using insults.
