"Just wondering" ... yeah, right.
Tracy Coxx knows the answer to the question. The post looks designed to shift the discussion in this thread to another right-wing discussion about the role of government.
The issue is that governments DIS-allow same-sex marriages, either by tradition or, increasingly, by statute. The point of codifying the right to same-sex marriage is about the other rights that come with being married. For instance, in the United States, these rights run the gamut from certain categories of tax filings that are beneficial to couples to things like being able to visit dying partners in hospitals and help make decisions for them.
But Tracy Coxx knows all this. Tracy Coxx is intelligent, but Tracy Coxx has a problem with discussing things in a forthright manner.
