You'd better back up your arguments with actual statistics, my friend. Because that's the kind of stereotype homosexuals have to deal with all the time, and it's entirely untrue. Homosexuals aren't all flamboyant and, as you so put it, 'more promiscuous than straight people.' That's a lie. Homosexuals should be allowed to marry, because nowadays marriage is a legal thing. Not a thing of religion. Let's say your life partner is dying, in pain, but incapable of making any decisions, then who better do decide his fate than you? But what if you're not married to that person, solely because you weren't granted those basic rights? Then your relationship wouldn't be recognized. Unless in his will, you would have nothing after that. As for adoption, I say 'Why not?'. What makes a homosexual couple less suited to raise a child than a heterosexual couple? And don't say 'the lack of a mother/father figure' because that's utter bull: Single parents are allowed to raise their children. I lived with a homosexual couple for a month while I was attending summer school, and they were very kind and loving. They often take care of their niece, who loves them more than anything in the world. Those two chose not to have children of their own, but they would have made excellent parents. Now of course, I'm aware some homosexuals would make bad parents, but for the same reason some heterosexuals wouldn't. Sorry for going off-topic.
