Gay marriage: not revolutionary, just next

What a refreshing headline! The Washington Post says simply, “Gay marriage isn’t revolutionary. It’s just next.”

The story opens: “Opponents of same-sex marriage worry that allowing two men or two women to wed would radically transform a time-honored institution. But they’re way too late on that front. Marriage has already been radically transformed – in a way that makes gay marriage not only inevitable, as Vice President Biden described it in an interview late last year, but also quite logical.”

Quite!

  1. Portuguese journalist found beaten, mutilated in New York hotel room


    A well-known celebrity journalist from Portugal was found murdered and castrated in a New York City Friday night.


    Carlos Castro’s body was found badly beaten and his scrotum was cut off with a broken wine glass. The suspected killer is Castro’s 20-year-old lover Renato Seabra, who is a fashion model in Portugal.

We welcome lively and challenging comments. However, please try to stay on topic, be polite and do not use abusive, racist or sexist language, and do not incite your readers to violence or other antisocial behaviour, or your comment will be deleted. This isn't censorship: it's a case of staying within the bounds of decency and having an eye to the law, although we realise the law will be different in different countries.

We do not bar anonymous comments at the moment, but we would prefer that those commenting play fair and use their name or at least a regular nom de plume. It does show a confidence in your convictions. We know, too, that it's easy to use a false name and be effectively anonymous, but, again, we appeal to your sense of good practice. Even a wacky nom de plume is better, since at least readers will come to know that contributor and maybe remember her or his previous comments.

Blatant commercial advertising will be removed.

Comments should not be construed as necessarily the policy or opinion of the Pink Triangle Trust.
