In many cities in America, gay marriage has already been banned. Boston is the bluest city in the Union. I understand that gay marriage has been put in the ballot in Boston as well. Let's see how it turns out. "Why not 40 yr old woman and a 9 yr old boy" That's wrong as well. I already mentioned Mary Kay Lateornou's case. "is more interesting is that you brought out a heterosexual union that you think will be a problem out of legalizing a homosexual marriage" Do you get what I'm saying? I suggested that homosexuality will open a whole new debate. Pedophiles(who may or may not be homos) will want to push their beliefs as well. "Pedophilia is a crime because one of the protagonists is a child. " That's what we say today. What guarantee can *you* give me that the law won't change in the future? That's where we're heading anyway.
