Tattoos and Dykes.
 

So disappointing.

A new old Etonian leader for the Conservatives, with a wife with a tattoo.

Weddings in the UK were Adam 'marries' Steve, and Eve 'marries' Neve.

Come on right wing protagonists, give me something to get my knickers in a twist about.:)

I Like Cameron, one hope’s he’s not just another gob artist. Same sex weddings? I’m glad I got out of the Photography business years ago. For god sake, I’m all for self expression and human rights but something’s should be left alone. Gay Rights, fine not a problem, equal rights amongst same sex couples should be a matter of law and not confused with the sanctity of marriage and what that morally demonstrates in a Christian society. And yes despite what some would want us to believe we do live in a Christian country, with Christian values and that cultural/religious value should be maintained. Western culture, often influenced by American trends and sense of freedoms is leading us down ever darkening paths. But hey, we will all be judged individually when we pop over to the other side. How does that sound to you, fancy a bite?

Re: Tattoos and Dykes.
 

It's only the press that has called them marriages, it's a civil partnership, giving same sex couples the same rights as hetrosexual couples.

I'll report back on my first 'wedding' in Febuary, when my friends get hitched on their seventeenth anniversary in Glasgow. Which is a lot longer than a lot of the 'normal' weddings I've been to have lasted.;)

Re: Tattoos and Dykes.
 

its great news and a brilliant step forward for British society in general.
too bad for the idiotic comments by George Michael that will keep the bloodthirsty tabloids busy for a while...
"yes we will be married but we will be allowed to roam free and live our individual lives"
silly silly man.

I know silly old Queen.

Hang on though, that's what real Queens and Kings have done throughout the history.;)

Mummy would be so pleased.

If only a man would put a ring on my finger.:rolleyes:

Re: Tattoos and Dykes.
 

Perhaps so……I know quite a few gay couples that have shown what a lasting relationship should be and not the free for all attitudes of today’s heterosexual shag along society, but when we pander to the rights of minority’s and lose our sense of values and perhaps the fear of right and wrong we end up with very much of what we’ve got in Britain today, which is a declining society without respect for what are moral values…..

It is a sad fact that one in three marriages end in divorce.

Re: Tattoos and Dykes.

Re: Tattoos and Dykes.
 

Isn't it widely accepted that God in fact made a load of monkeys who evolved into Adam, Steve and indeed Eve?

Re: Tattoos and Dykes.
 

Having an opinion is something that we enjoy as a right, we all have one and should be encouraged to use it, even if it makes us silly little men. I don’t honestly see how this can be great news and a brilliant step forward for British society in general. It’s just served to confuse an already confused society; I would agree the press is bleating like something possessed, but that in itself is the fruit of having the freedom to have an opinion. Having equal rights in respects sharing a home and responsibly to a life long partner is one thing and rightly so, but to put this in a process that equates to a marriage civil or otherwise is a retrograde step in the moral fabric of this country. But that’s my opinion.

I don’t disagree with you Geoff, but just how did we get to this stage? and what needs to be done to avoid a continuation of these situations.

Re: Tattoos and Dykes.
 

As usual I accept your point of view, but I disagree with it a little. I think this is a fair law. I've known friends who have been in a same sex relationship for thirty odd years, who have been denied the right to be at their partners deathbed because some distant relative is their 'real' next of kin. This will put a stop to that kind of silliness.

Re: Tattoos and Dykes.
 

I quite like David Cameron and some of his policies, which I suspect is bad news for the Tories.

Re: Tattoos and Dykes.
 

Agreed................
