Re: Re: H - U - G - E Gay Rights Victory in California!

by attacking critics of marriage as "trust fund babies" completely ignores the radical feminist (especially feminists of color) critique of marriage that many NON trust fund babies pioneered. i understand wanting/needing healthcare and the ability to make decisions for your partner. but those privileges should be availble to all people in all types of relationships. by fighting for marriage, you are creating a social and moral hierarchy of relationships that perpetuates society's valuing of certain types of people over others. you can still believe in the idea of queers (oh, i'm sorry... "gays and lesbians") being treated humanely in our society without supporting every bloodthirsty institution that exists. oh, and i AM critical of my straight friends that get married too, not just gays.
