Gay Marriage is a Human Right!

"...no one but the parties involved know  what happens, in private, sexually – if anything at all, unless s/he is a witness. Therefore, it is no one’s business what two consenting adults do, regardless of gender, as it pertains to their sexual behavior, much less the type of erotic relationship in which they choose to commit themselves, married or otherwise."

Dear friends,

The right to marry someone is a human right NOT a civil one. This is where much of the confusion starts with the issue of “gay” marriage.

The ever-reactionary US government has, conveniently, diminished all movements, along with their activists, that oppose the actions of the aforementioned government to being in the same league as the sterile movement of the Sixties that died with Martin Luther King. For example, today, ridiculous media and other endorsed spokespeople, call the great revolutionary and Black Nationalist Malcolm X, a “civil tights” leader. Huh? To be sure, about that, Malcolm is rolling around in his grave.

But this lessening of human rights just mentioned above can be seen in the ability of African Americans to rink from certain water fountains down South as being called a “civil right”. Being seated fairly on a bus may be a civil right. After all, at least you can get on the bus – or walk. However,  when, in fact, all humans must consume water/fluids in periodic intervals or they will succumb, it is a violation of one’s rights as a human being to not be able to drink from any particular public fountain. . This also applies to public toilets. 

In any case, and unfortunately, the original Gay Liberation Movement that started in the late-Sixties, due to the market, not “sexual”, orientation of so many American citizens has deteriorated into the so-called Gay “Rights” Movement, as folks constantly practice being the most saleable personalities,.

Moreover, aside from the fact that, to me, it is absurd for anyone to make a staunch claim of “sexual identity”, based upon something as precarious, if not frivolous, as the human sexual appetite, no one but the parties involved know  what happens, in private, sexually – if anything at all, unless s/he is a witness. Therefore, it is no one’s business what two consenting adults do, regardless of gender, as it pertains to their sexual behavior, much less the type of erotic relationship in which they choose to commit themselves, married or otherwise.

One Love!
