Have you noticed?

I like to hope so, but sometimes it seems as if things are going backwards.

I personally think that marriage is on a decline in this country. Who wants to get married and be locked into an institution? Not me anymore. I have been there and done that. What a horror. Believe me. I feel bad for anyone, straight or gay getting married. I think all marriages should be legal. If thats what you want to do. I would advise against it though. LOL. Nice!!! Hey Now!!!

I am well past 55 and I approve of gay marriage. It should be no body's business but the happy couple, so why is it? I think its great that a gay couple can adopt or get medical help to have children. There is always one thought that stays with me. No matter what, gay couples will never outnumber Heterosexuals because its so difficult for them to spread their genes!

People will always have their own thoughts on things. There will always be debate on the things that we want and ideas that we support. Regardless the decision, at the end of the day, each one of us has the right to voice out our choices/ideas - even if one does or doesn't agree to it. I think the topic is not about gay marriage, I thought your topic was about the statistics of those who agree and those who don't. I think the main reason for such a statistic is the fact that most people who are older don't see the point because during those times there weren't a lot of gay people or if there were, they didn't come out aggressively as today. Further, perhaps the people who were in their 30's at open to it because they grew knowing it. It doesn't make either any of the group right anyhow. It's just a bunch of opinions. Remember that we are borne with the right to expression and the right to thinking. It doesn't mean that a person doesn't agree that person is suppressing the other person's rights. You cannot do anything if the person is against the idea. You may burn the person or turn him/her inside-out, but the idea will always be there. So, I guess it's a debate that will join that of the debates on religion and government. Something that shouldn't be discussed if neither would like to listen. Have a great mylot experience ahead!

Each generation does seem to be moving towards more open minds. I think that it is very dependent on what they have been exposed to as youths and who they are used to being around. That is not to say that people can not later chose their ground, but for a while, I think it does matter how they are taught and how far they are willing to move away from or closer to what they have been taught. I think that marriage itself is becoming more of a thing of the past.

I believe some time in my children generation or the upcoming one that is about to pretty much take over the the US in the next 10 years that will be seeing more and more things coming possible for gay rights. I do believe that one day it will be legalize. I don't see any reason's why not to make it legal and it might because my generation was kind of raise in to see that it's okay.

I don't know. I know that the younger generation is not as prejudice....I see where someday we all might be the same color..there won't be any difference...but about gay marriage I don't know at all.

I heard a philosophy Professor from Princteton, I think, Ivy League anyway, who said that studies show that among evangelical Christian groups, 97% of over 55s are violently opposed to gay marriage, but that somewhere between 25% and 33% of under 30s are open to the idea, As for the right wing agenda, here in Australia they are talking about removing no fault divorce, are absolutely opposed to gay marriage, want to cap university places, raise fees, and get women back into their traditional roles. Oddly enough, lol, our nominally socialist Prime Minister is a woman, and her opposing leader a former priest who clearly has great difficulty in accepting orders from women. It's all part of a whole pattern. Lash
