    That is between the couple. I am not sure what role the State plays- so long as the adultery is known, it can't be used for blackmail.

    Of course gays should think like you, shouldn't they? After all, you are the arbiter of social liberties.

    And we thank you for telling us that some liberties don't matter.

    I assume that is what you meant. But if it is not, write a book about it. Call it the Bible.

    And although it doesn't make sense
    I held my own hand as a small sign of trust
    And together I sat on the fence

    There is a law against drab, middle-aged women being supplanted by gorgeous, young, admiring and clever wee things?

    I thought it was just another Dow transaction.

    ...that's not the point...the point is libs are for women being treated with respect and awryly is laughing at a fat chic being cheated on by her husband...so either someone is for women being treated with respect or not...it can't be "only when it's convenient", it's a yes or no answer...

    ...you are missing the point, if marriage is nothing special THEN WHY THE PUSH FOR GAY MARRIAGE?...if marriage is a joke, like you imply, then why are the gays pushing for it?...I don't get your sides flip-flopping on every issue they debate...first women need to be treated with respect, then you make fun of a wife being cheated on by her husband because she's deserving of it, then you rag on marriage as an institution while saying gays need the same right to the institution...make up your mind, it's "either" "or", not both...

    What points have I missed?

    1. I am not laughing at or disrespecting the "fat chic". I think I just said that Petraeus made a good choice to have a fling with the smart, gorgeous, eloquent, slim thing. Obviously, he thought so too.
    2. Marriage has a place as an institution. It provides stability in some relationships that probably wouldn't survive without it. Though it still continues to fail half the time. Personally, I wouldn't bother with it.
    3. The fact that some gays want to get married is simply the exercise of a liberty that should be as legal for them as anyone else. In some jurisdictions, it also confers extra legal rights - like the right to adopt, the right to be taxed at a lower (married) rate, the right to transfer property to a prime beneficiary partner (that should appeal to cons), and so on.
