Marriage

It would be nice but seems very unlikely now.

I am very proud to live in Massachusetts, the first place in the United States where gender was eliminated as an issue in determining whether you can be legally married. If any of our members in other states want to come here and get married (even though it may not be recognized when you get back home), I will gladly throw you a party!

Well, I can now add lawyer to the list of things I know MerelyPink is not.

California lets you change the gender on your Birth Certificate. I know because mine said "Female" for the longest time. Apparently, having a pecker and a masculine body wasn't convincing enough for the nurse and doctor who were helping delivering me. Either that or they were idiots.

I just celebrated my seventh wedding anniversary. We've been together for ten years. Personally, I can't imagine not being married. I really hate the dating game and all the awkwardness that that entails.

Congratulations, and best wishes for all the happiness in the world.

How true! I can just imagine the legal ramifications of attempting to get a marriage certificate through subterfuge and then getting caught.

I just hope for the day that marriage is legal no matter what. As long as they are both consenting adults, why should it be anyone elses concern?

You can get "same sex" marriages in the US, it's just that the marriages are not recognized by the Fed and certain states. There are gay people here in SD that get married all the time. The big thing people really want are the tax breaks and other benefits that come from being "married", which brings up the next question of why the Fed has a say in who can get married.

But yes, trying to pull one over on Uncle Sam can lead to some very harsh jail time and or fines.

Yes shadows, I completely agree with what you said. All marriage is is a social contract between two consenting adults and when the issue ever gets to the SCOTUS, hopefully they will look at it the same way.

Thanks for the information, Postman.

Same sex marriage is legal in Canada as well as several other countries. If a man, in Canada, marries a transwoman it is considered a same sex marriage. It's the same if a woman marries a transman. I look forward to the day when such marriages are not looked upon as same sex marriages, mainly so that it will give the dignity of recognizing that the trans partner in a marriage is really the gender that he or she identifies as.

never wear fresh whitewash in the rain. It's to easy to see thru.

I get the message but does Pink get the message?
I wonder if this saga will ever end.

[Shemale Cam Addict]

I`d like to that`s for sure

Considering how MP "fires and forgets" on every single post, that is highly unlikely.

Marriage, no way! I don't care if she's a tgirl or a ggirl, I doubt she'd be able to put up with me for longer than six months.

Having MerelyPink get the message is not my point at all.
