Hello Sy. Whats with this smokescreen about in the beginning?

We all know how we have evolved from the apes and that reproduction
historically involves a male and a female. Given over 95 %of the population are heterosexual whats with this concern about a small percentage of people who are gay destroying heterosexual people by marrying. Remember gay couples are already recognised under the law but all they asking is the ability to have a marriage certificate issued that makes it easier to confirm existence of a relationship. De-facto relationships both heterosexual and homosexual can in some cases be difficult to prove.

Enabling them to get a marriage certificate that confirms their relationship doesn’t impact heterosexual couples in any way. Anyone that thinks it would impact must have a pretty shaky relationship to somehow believe if gay couples can register their relationship with a marriage certificate it will undermine their own relationship.

You say they will destroy marriage between men and women. I ask HOW?

Other than a small proportion of the population who are gay, heterosexual men and women will continue to marry or live in de-facto relationships and will love their partners in exactly the same way as has always applied. Its got me baffled how you see gay couples simply registering their lawful relationship with a marriage certificate will somehow destroy the relationships of heterosexual couples who are over 95% of the population.

You also mention bullying. How the heck can you plausibly sell the view that under 5% of the population can bully the other 95%plus.. Its in fact more likely the other way round if the NO vote were to get up. If the YES vote gets up its because a majority of heterosexual men and women have opted to enable same sex couples to register their marriage. Their ability to do so is in the hands of the heterosexual 95% plus of the population. We will decide their futures on this issue. They can only hope that the great mass of people allow them the happiness of showing their commitment to their partners by issue of a marriage certificate instead of the current only available option namely de-facto.

For you Sy there are no repercussions so you could show compassion and vote YES.

cheers
