Saving myself for marriage

Posted on February 11, 2004 by Gene

You can always count on The Onion to provide real social commentary in the guise of humor. From today’s “What Do You Think?“:

Last week, the Massachusetts high court sanctioned same-sex marriages in that state. What do you think?

“Same-sex unions will only serve to weaken the institution of marriage for the rest of us. My wife and I can barely stand each other as it is.”

“What’s the big deal? It’s legal now. My sister’s married to a gay guy and everyone knows it.”

“Great. Just when I finally get my mother to accept that I’m gay, she has a whole new thing to nag me about: getting married.”
