Top 10 Reasons Gay Marriage Should Be Illegal

Top 10 Reasons Gay Marriage Should Be Illegal

12 Nov, 2006 General, -Funneh

Top Ten Reasons to Make Gay Marriage Illegal

01) Being gay is not natural. Real Americans always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses, polyester, and air conditioning.

02) Gay marriage will encourage people to be gay, in the same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall.

03) Legalizing gay marriage will open the door to all kinds of crazy behavior. People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage contract.

04) Straight marriage has been around a long time and hasn’t changed at all like many of the principles on which this great country was founded; women are still property, blacks still can’t marry whites, and divorce is still illegal.

05) Straight marriage will be less meaningful if gay marriage were allowed; the sanctity of marriages like Britney Spears’ 55-hour just-for-fun marriage would be destroyed.

06) Straight marriages are valid because they produce children. Gay couples, infertile couples, and old people shouldn’t be allowed to marry because our orphanages aren’t full yet, and the world needs more children.

07) Obviously gay parents will raise gay children, since straight parents only raise straight children.

08) Gay marriage is not supported by religion. In a theocracy like ours, the values of one religion are imposed on the entire country. That’s why we have only one religion in America.

09) Children can never succeed without a male and a female role model at home. That’s why we as a society expressly forbid single parents to raise children.

10) Gay marriage will change the foundation of society; we could never adapt to new social norms. Just like we haven’t adapted to cars, the service-sector economy, or longer life spans. .

12 Ways to Improve Your Relationships and Your Life!

Clip Source: www.mercola.com

The following tips can help you improve your relationships; however, if you are seriously challenged by your relationships, get some help.

1. Choose to be happy rather than right in your relationships. This will prevent a lot of arguing!

2. Repeat in your mind: "It doesn't matter" when you can't stop arguing

3. Pay it forward. For every kind deed offered to you, do a kind deed for someone else.

4. Write thank-you notes frequently. The energy of gratitude feeds happiness.

5. Smile -- even if you don't feel like it. You eventually will!

When you think a complimentary thought about someone -- tell them.

7. Refrain from making judgments -- think something positive instead.

8. Ask your angels to flow the energy of happiness to your loved ones.

9. Hug someone -- tightly.

Ask your children to tuck you in bed and read you a story for a change.

11. Give some service to someone who is more needy than you.

12. Pray with your spouse and also with your family once a day.

clipper's remarks: OMFG... again with the "vagina is evil" bull...

Didn't we go through this a week or so guys? (but with a school play)

I'm just stunned that a woman actually complained the the word vagina was offensive...

Clip Source: www.metro.co.uk

A theatre in Florida had to change the title of a charity production of The Vagina Monologues on its marquee, after a woman complained that it was offensive.

The new name? They decided on 'The Hoohaa Monologues'.

Then, they had to change it back after the play's producers said that the lack of offense was offensive.

White House 'neo-cons,' snubbing Iran since 2003

Wed, 21 Feb 2007 18:06:48 GMT

clipped by: citizenbfk
clipper's remarks: What else is new?

Well, actually when the US declared the presence of Iranian speedboats buzzings around the Gulf as "provacative,' I thought that was amazingly new.

Imagine. The USAhreating war against Iran, threatening sactions against Iran, trying to stop Iran from developing nuclear power in an energy hungry world, insisting that Iran wants to develop and build nuclear weapons, attacking and occupying it's neighbors to the west and east (surrounding Iran), sending another aircraft carrier fleet -- the biggest war ship in the world -- sending it onto Iran's doorstep; and now to then declare Iran has started to act 'provocative."

Nasty Irarnians and their speedboats! If we don't stop them there they'll be hounding us in New York Harbor.

Rove Said to Have Received Iranian Proposal in 2003

Who else in the Bush administration was aware of the secret proposal?

Karl Rove, then White House senior political advisor for President George W. Bush, received a copy of the secret Iranian proposal for negotiations with the United States from former Republican Congressman Bob Ney in early May 2003, according to an Iranian-American scholar who was then on his Congressional staff.

Ney, who pleaded guilty last year and was sentenced to prison in January for his role in the Jack Abramov lobbying scandal, was named by former aide Trita Parsi as an intermediary who took a copy of the Iranian proposal to the White House.

Parsi is now a specialist on Iranian national security policy and president of the National Iranian-American Council (NIAC), a non-partisan organisation that supports a negotiated settlement of the conflict between Iran and the United States.

4.) As you feel the approach of orgasm, try to relax, consciously uncurl the toes and breath deep and restfully. You want to find the very edge of ecstasy and ride it, not moving away from it and not giving in to orgasmic release.

Why women can't have sex like men

Sun, 08 Apr 2007 10:16:10 GMT

clipped by: suzi3ana

Clip Source: health.yahoo.com

In addition, sex -- whether it be a one-night stand, a booty call, or "friends with benefits" -- takes a different toll on women than it does on men. When we reach orgasm our brain becomes flooded with Oxytocin, the chemical of attachment, leading to feelings of intimacy and affection. Men have higher levels of testosterone in their brains which may help to counteract this chemical, but women are not so lucky. Thus, no matter how much women may wish they could "have sex like a man," we are not physically programmed to do so.

I’ve learned that no matter what happens, or how bad it seems today, life does go on, and it will be better tomorrow. I’ve learned that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you’ll miss them when they’re gone from your life. I’ve learned that ‘making a living’ is not the same thing as ‘making a life.’ I’ve learned that life sometimes gives you a second chance. I’ve learned that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision. I’ve learned I still have a lot to learn. I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.

Americans and Nudity

clipper's remarks: being dutch, my mama as well as my aunts have no shame. i've grown up seeing them naked about the house as though it was normal. my aunt monique is more than willing to show you her rack, even if you don't ask. the question here is - does everyone *want* to see us naked? probably not. i'm sure it depends. though, having little shame myself, i wouldn't mind being naked in my garden...

Clip Source: www.alternet.org

Why Are Americans Afraid of Being Naked?

In the Netherlands people can be naked in their gardens, the beach and recently the gym. But in America, even chocolate sculptures can't be without clothes. What gives?

Legally, in Netherlands people are allowed to be naked anywhere except public roads or when they annoy others, a law in play since 1986.

Vagina Clip

clipper's remarks: This clip is in honor of the ridiculous decision by a school in New York to suspend a few students for using the word vagina during a reading of The Vagina Monologues.

Clip Source: en.wikipedia.org

Vagina

The vagina, (from Latin, literally "sheath" or "scabbard" ) is the tubular tract leading from the uterus to the exterior of the body in female placental mammals and marsupials, or to the cloaca in female birds, monotremes, and some reptiles.

Clip Source: www.coolnurse.com

The vagina is the opening that is located directly below the urethral opening (where you pee from). The opening is called an orifice, as are other openings in your body.

The clitoris is a sensitive organ and it's function is to provide sexual pleasure.

Clip Source: www.nlm.nih.gov

The vagina allows for the flow of menstrual blood and for sexual intercourse, and is the passageway through which a baby is born.

Clip Source: en.wikipedia.org

The Vagina Monologues is an Obie Award-winning episodic play written by Eve Ensler which ran at the off-Broadway Westside Theatre after a limited run at HERE Arts Center in 1996.
