The Straight and Narrow

Okay.

So.

It seems like there are a lot of people who don't value marriage at all... Until they're told that they can't get married, at which point they're furious. Like, why is it that in an ironic turn of events, gay people now value marriage more than most heterosexuals?

I vote that, in order to lower the divorce rate and save marriage and stable families in this country, we should legalize marriage for gays and outlaw marriage for heterosexuals. As it stands right now, marriage is viewed as standard and obligatory- (There is obviously a huge difference between how something is viewed and how it actually is) Something that people 50 years older than you will want you to do for no reason... Also there are tax benefits ;)

But if marriage was made illegal, it would suddenly have a rebel appeal which is (Because reasons) stronger than almost any other incentive you could give for it, because humans love rebellion, and Americans love being human.
