I was thinking about a debate on gay rights that I had in high school. This is separate from this speech that I did for the same class. I dwelt on it for awhile and realized that, hey, I should write this down! But I'm not sure how to wrap it up. Here's what I've got:
The argument against gay marriage that "if everyone was gay, the human race would die out" is one of the stupidest out there. Allowing the GLBT community the civil rights--not special rights--that they are entitled to as human beings is not going to turn every human on the planet gay. Seriously. About ten percent of the human population is homosexual. Add bisexuals and transgendered people, and you're still at less than twenty percent. The human race is not going to die out with full civil equality just like it's not dying out now. There have always been GLBT individuals, and yet the human population has doubled every fifty years (give or take) since man first walked upright.
Besides, any fertile woman within her child-bearing years can have a child, regardless of her sexual orientation. Any non-impotent man can sire a child, regardless of his sexual orientation. This can be done by in vitro fertilization, or by "crossing the street" and doing it the old fashioned way. There's also adoption. There are so many same-sex couples looking to adopt, and many are willing to adopt older and/or special needs children. The excuse that every child deserves a mother and a father doesn't take into account reality, which involves single parents raising kids on their own, most of them doing a fine job of it. There is also a whole generation of adults who were raised by same-sex couples who can personally attest to the ability of same-sex couples to be good parents. Also, gay couples don't have children by accident. Human biology doesn't work that way. The children of gay couples are planned for and often fought for.

If it cost me nothing but time, sure!
Of course I would! Why not?
My fitness goals: get down to a BMI under 25. Dance Dance Revolution is helping, and the internet is hindering.
"If you can't be with the one you love, love the one you're with." BAD ADVICE.

So my endoscopy was today. I knew that they'd need my help swallowing the camera, but I also knew that I'd be getting drugs. I wasn't sure what either would feel like.
But they rolled me into the room, and the staff had all kinds of music and put on classic rock for me (XD) and sprayed this Chloraseptic-like stuff down my throat (which made me gaggy to swallow), and then I was just sitting there with my mind wandering, and then the guy who'd sprayed the Chloraseptic-like stuff got my attention and I was wondering if he'd say it was about to start...but it was finished, and they rolled me into recovery, where I stayed for about forty-five minutes, and Chris was there with me, and a Captain (who said I wouldn't remember him, ha!) offered me ice chips and showed me some of the pictures they took of my insides.
They took two biopsies. Something about an ulcer for one, and then another one. I'm not sure how that deals with the throat-sick, but clearly there's more than I (or Dr. Whackamole or Dr. Howard, the new guy 'cause Dr. W got deployed early) realized.
No, his name isn't Dr. Whackamole. I just remember that it begins with W and has three syllables.
:P
Anyhow, I got Chris to bring the car around to the front (I need to find out how my mom gets my stepdad to do that all the time! ^_^) and pick me up, and then we went home and I went to bed, even though I was well rested when we left. I slept most of the day away and got up a few hours ago, and since I hadn't eaten in about 20 hours, I made grilled cheese and cream of chicken soup for both of us, and some hot green tea for myself (ahhhh), then went upstairs to enjoy mah foodz and watch Countdown and TRMS...though the DVR got messed up so I'm downloading the podcast.
I still feel like going back to bed, but I've been laying down all day...
So I guess I'll go downstairs and catch up on texted tweets on my phone while Chris plays Dynasty Warriors Gundam.
I'm glad to come up and talk, so if you want to chat (and contrary to popular belief, that invitation is for everyone, not just ♥Fizzy♥), you can email me at orbitaldiamonds@gmail.com
