Women who are against marriage equality (same-gender, same-sex marriage) should have theirs revoked as well. It wasn't that long ago that those "liberal activists" in Massachusetts argued that a woman's right to exist as a citizen (and gasp hold property or have any legal custody of her own children) should persist when she got married. The traditional American definition of marriage demands that a woman has no rights other than as a subordinate of her husband. (And a married woman can't vote. It's for her husband to decide what she thinks.) Nevermind the very recent "traditional" definition of marriage in America which prohibited citizens of different races or origins to legally wed. "Gay marriage" is not redefining "marriage," and the legal concept of marriage has hardly ever been immutable.
I'm sick of this shit. The Teabaggers need to get dunked and thrown in the compost pile with the rest of their rhetoric.
But at least there is constant satire to qualm my frustration.
