Same Sex Marriages

  The two liberals here at Pop ‘n’ Good were very happy to learn that same-sex marriage licenses will soon be legally issued in California. I always had faith in Arnie. Ever since I heard him boom “I need your clothes, your boots and your motorcycle”, I knew he was the type of guy who would get things done.
    For a bit of background information, Cali is only the second US state to legalise gay marriage after Massachusetts (which I only just learned how to spell - it’s a tricky word). Before, they had Civil Unions, aka the poor man’s marriage. Just like our little nation.
The Same-Sex Marriage Bill was passed after those important folks who make decisions ruled that sexuality was a protected class, like race or gender. Or more simply, discriminating against gays is like unfairly judging woman or Hispanics - totally not high-five behaviour.
    So, as long as there’s no injunction between now and June 14, gay couples will have the same marriage rights as breeders.
    And I know this is all very un-Pop ‘n’ Goody, because we’re usually too focussed on Amy Winehouse tongueing Pete Doherty or Mischa Barton’s thighs to care about politics.

But this is different because this means that - hold onto your seat! - Ellen DeGeneres and Portia De Rossi are totally going to live in sweet married bliss. Which is as awesome as awesome sauce will ever come.
    Ellen announced it on her show. She was very excited. Much more excited than when Freddie Highmore played the recorder with his nose on her show, which was one heck of exciting.
    And now I’m excited for her. Because the world seems like a very scary place, with all this expensive cheese and new wave music. So if two awesome people can get married, then it can’t be that scary.

As for haters? Live and let live, man. Or, in the words of a very sarcastic and/or confused blogger “Being gay is a birth defect, and since people with other defects can marry, why not them?”
