One of the hot button terms in the debate over gay rights is the so-called "Gay Agenda." But what exactly is meant by this? Is the gay agenda merely to petition for equal rights or is it about something far more sinister? In this installment of the "What's Wrong with...?" series, Joe Hanson asks "What's Wrong with the Gay Agenda?"

  • Personally I have no problem with Gay marriage. If they wish to suffer the same agony as the rest of us more power to them! I am a happily divorced female. My best friend is gay, and would love to marry his partner. I try to talk him out of it all the time!! We love who we love, gay marriage would destroy the fabric of society, just raise the divorce %.
  • Best reason for anyone (gay or otherwise) to get married? Health insurance!

  • As someone who is involved with creating non-mainstream queer culture, I think it is rather cliched and tired to have yet another story pitting conservative anti-gay people versus gay people. Try for a fresh approach and examine divisions within the gay community -- for instance, assimilationists versus radicals, people who want gay marriage to be recognized by the government versus people who are against government power.

  • I laughed all the way through this piece. Thank you for the satirical look at the "gay agenda." I was struck by a couple things. One was the use of the term "traditional values." I would have to ask, "Whose traditions are we talking about? When I was growing up in the 40's 50's and 60's I lived in "melting pot" neighborhoods. I witnessed the traditions of a dozen different nationalities. They did not come from the same "tradition" in many respects. So whose tradition shall we choose? Another phrase that struck me was "fabric of our society." As long as we have any group hating another group or wishing them ill will or failing to respect each other, then the "fabric" is full of holes. We will never mend the fabric of society as long as we keep picking at the frayed edges around the holes we poke by disrespecting other groups. After 61 years of living as a minority person I have learned that only by each of us accepting and respecting each other will the fabric of society become whole cloth. I know people will bring up the most bizarre exceptions like child killers and say how can you respect that person? Don't focus on the bizzarre, focus on your neighbor. Unless you live in one of those rich gated communities that discriminates, you have nieghbors who are gay or lesbian or transgender. Backbiting, talking down, or outright disrespecting them is not a family value and is only destructive to the fabric some haters like to brag about. Get over it. Make nice. The fabric will thank you for it.

  • Transsexual Marriage
    I have a question: say you are like this couple. Married heterosexually for several years, and eventually one member decides to undergo a sex change operation. Is the marriage still legally recognized? Does anybody know?

  • again us vs them mentality. the only agenda or conspiracy i see is people wanting to be themselves.

    who cares what makes someone else happy if it does no damage to anyone else.

    marry yer frikn gerbil for all i care as long as you respect the institution of marriage and love your "other"

    gay is just another smokescreen. like color or religion.
    a label. a word to make us NOT see the human but the "issue"

  • abbym03038. Yes. This issue has been looked at in lower courts in the U.S. and in some European countries and the opinions have been overwhelmingly yes, the validity of the marriage does not change. Sinced the conditions were met at the time of the marriage contract, the marriage remains valid. Many courts do, however, recognize gender reassignment surgery as grounds for divorce without any other extenuating circumstances.

  • Personally i have no problem with gay marriage. I am a straight female and yes, i agree that it is a sin, but we cannot say which sin is worse. God will do his job punishing homosexuals just as he does with people who commit suicide,or lie or whatever, there's a verse in the bible that says- those who follow Him shall be forgiven. And if you have faith in Him, and ask for forgiveness, you will be forgiven. I guess what I'm tryin to say is who are you to judge who can and cannot get married? If you're so Christian and follow under all of the rules of the Bible quit judging. Let the man upstairs decide what he wants done, we are all equal people in God's eyes, stop picking on them because they may be different than you or me.
