and not to be controversial, but i hate the idea of 'civil unions' etc. - people should be allowed to marry whoever they want - and call it a marriage!!


I totally agree with that. I don't understand why some people seem to think that allowing gays to get legally married will somehow 'demean' their marriages. What does someone else's marriage have to do with yours? I don't get it. I'm married now myself and I still don't get it, so it's not about being married or not. What I really think it is, they're afraid that if gays are legally married just like them, they can't feel superior to them anymore. Which makes me want to say, get over yourself!! You're not that special.

Marriage is about two people wanting to make a true commitment to one another. Not that many years ago inter-racial marriages were illegal in this country. Can you imagine that being a law, now? I'm hoping that in twenty or so years the new generation will think the same way about gay marriage--that they can't believe that some people objected.

I figured because I always look at peoples profiles. Like others have said, Marriage is about 2 people that love each other. Congratulations to you and your fiance!

Congratulations to you! I know it's hard to 'put yourself out there' sometimes but as you can see, LIW is a supportive community

BTW my friend is having a commitment ceremony at Riviera in a few weeks!! I can FM you a review when I get back if you'd like

I don't want this to come off the wrong way but I figured that out a while ago! I think it's amazing that you have found someone to commit yourself to and love is love no matter what, you don't need to feel like you should 'come clean'.

Toast to you ladies!!

Eventually this country will catch up with the rest of the world.

Also....I reccomend Rev. Deb if you haven't found someone for your commitment ceremony.

I agree with the other posts--love is love. It doesn't matter who it is with.

I think it's a great thing for you to do. My cousin had a commitment ceremony a few years ago at the bottom of the Golden Gate Bridge, and it was the most beautiful thing. You and your partner will have a great time and enjoy!

Guess what? YOU GUYS ARE GETTING MARRIED AS FAR AS I'M CONCERNED! I think it's awesome and I can't wait for the day that you guys can enjoy the same legal rights as the rest of us - because there is no difference in the love you have for your GF from the love the rest of us have for our fiancees!

Congratulations!! there is nothing to 'come clean' about... Love is love... no matter what!!!

Just the fact that you felt like you had to 'come clean' makes me sad. Who cares if you're marrying a woman, a man, a cat, a fish...(okay, maybe a fish is pushing it)...but if you are in love - that's all that matters!!!

Re: so i was thinking

Congratulations! I think a commitment ceremony is still a wedding - FH and I are getting married outside the church so to some that isn't a real wedding - but it's real to us and that's all that really matters

Congrats to you and your FW!

Lol, I love how the cat is okay though. Personally, my rule is as long as they’re of the same species…I could have sworn I once read about a German woman who married a tree so maybe I’m just old-fashioned and not with the times

I personally am not a cat person, so I don't get it - but i'm a BIG TIME DOG person...so i had to go for equal rights..

Aw, Im sorry that you felt you had to 'come clean'....love is love no matter how you put it, and we all get to celebrate it in the same way, even if our stupid legal system doesn't think so yet! Your wedding will be beautiful and as long as you two are celebrating your love with all of your friends and family, thats all that matters!
