#and they have a myraid of different reasons that dont come down to being too dumb to understand long term commitment

[anotherpapercut]

this was an addition on another post but I thought it deserved its own because I keep seeing posts about marriage that would fit in on right wing conspiracy YouTube

people should be allowed to choose whether or not they want to get married. posting about how people who don't want to get married are idiots and there's no viable reason why a person might choose not to get legally married makes you sound like Jerry Falwell. marriage should be legally accessible by ALL people regardless of disability, gender or sexuality, but basic rights should ALSO be available to all and not, as this person puts it, locked behind dominant cultural institutions

#jerry falwell was like a big marriage and family conservative btw #theres a post I see going around sometimes where they basically assert that the only reason people choose not to get married #is that they think its 'too permanent' and the post is like 'as if buying a house and having kids arent permanent' #reblogging that is an autoblock for me. you have to be such a fucking ridiculous asshole to agree with that post lmfao #people have been choosing to have long term relationships that dont involve marriage for thousands of years #and they have a myraid of different reasons that dont come down to being too dumb to understand long term commitment #how far down your throat does the boot have to be for you to think the institution of marriage should be the only way to access rights #especially if youre american #its hilarious to me seeing tumblr gays coming on here making posts that sound like things southern baptists have said to me #when the missourian thinks you sound like a reactionary evangelical you know its bad
