12,000 years ago, in the early days of this blog, I think a lot more liberal people were opposed to marriage equality. Many cloaked it in politics, as in them gays are going to lose elections for "us" if they keep pushing this stuff, but many just echoed what I hope are, to most of us, increasingly gross and creepy arguments. Such as "I believe in equality but I'm just not comfortable with using the term 'marriage' for man on man unions" or similar.

Deny basic rights to people because it makes you feel a bit icky. Dumbasses. It's not fucking about you.


... some Very Serious Connected People on the twitter seem to think that Obama's evolution might be completed today.
