cant belive the headline ive just read

i thought these people  wanted equality not to be labled like a regualr married couple

Equality is labelling them like a regular married couple.

so the old jokes about givers and takers are not jokes after all

So is she the husband, or are they both wives?

I can't believe you've read the Mail.

Does she actually shut her gob, when they are doing whatever they do, or does she give a running commentary, of all the close up action?

it's all part of the same plot ... if it's said often enough and loud enough, then it will be the accepted truth.

e.g. islam is a religion of peace, immigration is good for the economy ... there is a long list

But those of us who can think for ourselves know the real truth

A little bit of rug munching never hurt anyone. Can't say the same about religion unfortunately.

Does islam have many sex change individuals by a matter of interest?
I saw on HIGNFY some comment about the supposed inaccuracy nowadays regarding one's sex not being determined by sexual organs ffs
now thats a mad world right there.

"Clare Balding's husband" arguably confusing in the circumstances

The terms 'husband' and wife' have become non gender specific to accomodate gay marriage.

It's something that passed most people by at the time of the debate. I believe they can also be interchangeable, so one's wife on a monday can be one's husband on tuesday.

To make it 'fair' to straight couples, I believe this is the case for them too!! Get your head around that!

This is from The Telegraph 2013

Men can be 'wives' and women 'husbands' as Government overrules the dictionary
The word “husband” will in future be applied to women and the word “wife” will refer to men, the Government has decided.

Civil servants have overruled the Oxford English Dictionary and hundreds years of common usage effectively abolishing the traditional meaning of the words for spouses.

The landmark change is contained in the fine print of new official legal guidance drawn up for MPs and peers as the Government’s same-sex marriage bill is debated.

It comes as part of a Government initiative to “clarify” what words will mean when gay marriage becomes law.

But critics described it as the vocabulary of “cloud cuckoo land”.

Oh well, if a civil servant has decided what a word or words means, then that's completely string, not to say hatstand and I for one am perfectly yacht about it Episcopalian

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)'s 2010 National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survey reports on the lifetime prevalence of rape, physical violence or stalking by an intimate partner, focusing for the first time on victimization by sexual orientation. It finds a victimization prevalence of 43.8 percent for lesbians, making it the second most affected group after bisexual women (61.1 percent), ahead of bisexual men (37.3 percent), heterosexual women (35 percent), heterosexual men (29 percent) and homosexual men (26 percent).[8]
