I figure it's up to them and none of my business. I chose my own spouse, and everyone else has a right to do that, too.What do you think of inter racial marriage and gay marriage?

I don't have a problem with it. Love is what is most important.
What ever makes your boat float..I support Both.What do you think of inter racial marriage and gay marriage?
I don't think either are my cup of tea. I don't even believe in straight marriages unless there are children involved.
Depends on the people involved. I have friends who are in both scenarios and they are very happy. However, I'm a very liberal live and let live kind of person. While neither of these situations would be my choice, I dont make judgements about others.
dont like it stick to your own race and the opposite sex that is the only way it should be
I think that people that marry into that kind of marrige seem to be happier
i think there is absolutly nothing wrong with interracial or gay marriage..i'm 16 and i have alot of friends who are mixed..their parents are married... and i have a guy friend who is planning on marrying a guy...if you love sumone enough that you will marry them..then let them be happy
Who am I to dictate to someone else who can fall in love with who. It is not my place to approve or disapprove. Love is a special thing and should be honored no matter what.
I'm 40 and I believe adults should be free to marry another consenting adult if they choose. Race or gender optional. 2D
Yes to Interracial marriage, No to gay marriage.
no problem
I don't think about it. It is what it is. I don't understand why it preys on minds and why anyone cares who anyone marries.
I can't see as race makes any difference,unless it's to the already prejudiced.

I don't believe in same sex marriages,if they want to live together,then fine (62)
I don't judge inter racial marriages although when children are born I wonder how will their peers will treat them. Life is hard enough already.I hope my grandchildren marry with in their race.I do not accept gay marriages for religious reasons, but at the same time would never say or treat a gay person rude. It is their choice in the end.I believe we should respect each other no matter what our choice.
I usually just keep my opinions to myself.Here is a peek at my feelings.....To each their own.
I support both.

I think gay legal unions and all legal unions reinforces the idea that couples should make commitments to each other in order to have a more stable society. Gays are forced to live together without legal unions and heterosexuals are just living together AND bringing children into the situation.

We no longer have laws against interracial marriages.
I think as long as it makes those two people happy, just like in a regular marriage. They aren't going to bother you, unless like your a homophobe or something. I think gays or interracials should be happy just like the rest of us. If the gays go to hell for marring someone they loved, to be happy for the rest of their lives, at least they died happy.
Well, if they are happy and are not hurting anybody else, I'm not going to loose sleep over it. I've got bigger fish to fry!
Live and let live. To each his own. I don't care how other people live their lives. What ever makes them happy. When I was young I was shocked at these life styles, but I've matured sense then.
Whatever floats your boat, love is a many splendour thing, how can you walk away from someone you truly love.
How other people live their personal lives is none of my business as long as it doesn't effect mine in some detrimental manner. I have friends of all races and sexual orientation. I am only prejudiced against biggots.



What bothers me most is child and/or spousal abuse. As well as addiction - it isn't the addict that I'm opposed to, rather, what addiction causes - we need to find a way to truly help people out of this, not just put them in jail.
THis could sure cause some controversy and possible reporting. But, you asked and here goes. This is from the heart and trueful. Inter racial mariages don't bother me so much as long as the kids don't have to suffer. I don't believe a mixed couple should marry if there are already kids of each race involved already I mean blacks kids from a previous marriage, mixing with new white step parent, and visa versa. I think this would be too hard on kids. I think of them.

As for gay marriage---------No, I'm dead set against it. I do not believe we were created to do this. I believe this is a really huge sin and should never be allowed. Now, i know I've made some enemies on this one and I'm sorry, but, you did ask and I'm giving my best honest answer.I do not think gays should be able to adopt children and teach them this life style. As I think it is wrong to teach this in schools. This wasn't asked, but I'm on aroll and might as well get it all out. I do not think our tax money should go to abortion clinics either. The ones of us that don't approve ,are helping to support this and it's wrong, Why should we be forced to support something that we don't believe in. If they want an abortion then I think they should have to get the money to pay for it themselves.As I said I've made some enemies with this and I hope I don't get reported. But if I do , oh well .. Been there and done that already.
I am not against either one. Love knows no boundaries. I am 53 yrs old.
I think love is too precious and valuable to waste with admonishment.
People can do what they like, but not in MY family. I teach my grandchildren to be polite and respectful to everyone, but keep to your own culture and race. Anyone who transgresees will be disowned. Everyone knows that I am serious, because I have already demonstrated that it is not an empty threat. My family has enough issues without introducing racial and homosexual issues into it.



Diversity is not our strength. Diversity creates weakness.
I don't even know where to start. I think the younger generation got sidetracked somewhere between reality %26amp; make believe. The younger people are'nt thinking the lifestyle through %26amp; through. Its not "normal", and when somethings not normal after we have been on this planet for thousands of years, that should tell you something.If things keep going like they are now, where you see this abmormal behavior on t.v. and teach it to be o.k. in our school systems, in about a hundred years a child is not going to know what he or she is.They will not know the rightful human feelings of having a true family. I have heard young people onyahoo anwers that are 13 yrs old and think, THINK!, they might be gay.Its not that they are gay at all, its just they have seen it on the web, t.v., and THINK! they may be gay.A 13yr old youngster shouldnt even know about thinking if they are gay or not.It absolutely pitiful that we continue to allow this in our communities. I for one am "coming out of the closet", not for gay and bi-racial marriages but against them.Anytime I see I can stop it from happening I will do my best to make that happen, anytime I see people of the same sex hugging and kissing in public, they will know Im there.If everyone would pull together and stomp out this infestation it will be a better and cleaner world. You can thumbs down, report, cry %26amp; whine all ya want, but YOU ask.
