hysterical.

a brilliant and ballsy protest initiative.

"For many years, social conservatives have claimed that marriage exists solely for the purpose of procreation ... The time has come for these conservatives to be dosed with their own medicine," said WA-DOMA organizer Gregory Gadow in a printed statement. "If same-sex couples should be barred from marriage because they can not have children together, it follows that all couples who cannot or will not have children together should equally be barred from marriage."

now, of course there will be a backlash. however, i'm just amused someone is actually attempting to do this.

if social conservatives will just come out and say, "fuck the reasoning - we just don't want gay people to get married, because, like, OMG ew!" (probably closer to the truth than the charade of basing said view on some underlying rationale) then these little stunts can never happen. but if you try to make irrational social policy based on rational argument, you're going to get your "rational" arguments thrown right in your face.

can't have it both ways!
