Do you want to marry to a same sex?
 

GO TO CAMBODIA! :D Just saying, it is a lot of fun over there and a lot of people are very friendly over there.

Cambodian royal family is very open about sexual preference thing and they're supporting gay people. >.< I'm really happy that we have such open minded royal family in Cambodia. ^ ^


=UNCERTAIN= Well Norodom Sihamoni (current king) is gay. He was a ballet dancer in Paris, sometimes appears as if he's wearing mascara, he's around 60 and never been married I haven't met many straight ballet dancers. How many straight men devote their lives to ballet seriously!! And the man could have his pick of Cambodian women being the king and all. That's strange also. Most Cambodian kings have had several wifes and lots of mistresses yet Sihamoni is single!!

That's why they are always issuing statements supporting gay marriage.

If I have a bf in the future I am going to make him go to Cambodia with me and get marry over there. :] Plus it is my homeland! ^ ^

No. I'm straight. It's that simple >_>

I'm absolutely not attracted to women.

My parents were born in Cambodia. And I'm part cambodian :P

Indeed I do want to marry a member of my same sex (which would happen to be female, for those who don't already know). I prefer females and I'm really fortunate that same-sex marriage is legal where I live (Connecticut, US). People in my community are generally very accepting and tolerant. Of course there are always those few assholes every now and then, but that's to be expected if you're a minority. Hell, even if you're a majority you still get them. I'm glad your homeland is also accepting of the LGBT community ^^ I hope you get married to an awesome man and dont have to go through any complications =3

Overall question: No, I'm straight. I couldn't imagine marrying a woman. My female friends irritate me with their girl-drama so much that I spend more time with my guy friend. Getting married to a woman would probably drive me insane. And off a cliff.

In regard to the ballet: Mikhail Baryshnikov was a straight ballet dancer. He's also considered the most famous, most successful ballet dancer of all time.

Yeah, I am gay, but I don't feel that I want to marry someone of the same sex, I know it'd be nice, but I'm kinda for the tradition of marriage between a man and women, I'm not sure why. xD
And plus I don't need a ring and vows to know that someone loves me.

And I know a couple of straight guys that are really into ballet. :O

This thread really belongs in the Lifestyles board.

I'm bi-curious and I'm engaged to a girl (she proposed to me on skype) XD

I do want to marry my boyfriend =3
Gay marriages were allowed about half a year ago in the City of Mexico, though, so I'll just go there instead if we ever do get married.

You can't get married to someone of the same sex in Connecticut, however, they do recognize gay marriages.

----------------------------------------------------


As for the topic. I've NEVER considered marriage to anyone of either gender until I met my current boyfriend, Lucian. I'd like to marry him one day.

Oh my, that is cool. :D

Last I knew you could O.o At first it was just civil unions, then it was changed to marriage. .... I remember getting all excited because I could marry my partner (who is now my ex). So unless they pulled a 'California' and took it away, I'm fairly certain that you can.

Whoever would have to be AMAZING to make me consider marriage, when I am pretty not-for being married, lol. But if they were AMAZING and same sex, yes. :3

When did they earn it then? After looking it seemed that only New Hampshire? I and like one other state had actual marriages and not civil unions.

Edit : 2008? Wow, that's pretty new then, isn't it?

I have to say that I will probably never get married. I'm not going to get into details, but I am all for other people getting married. Also, if i were to get married, I would go to the Netherlands... I mean, have you seen the women there!?!?! HOLY HOTNESS BATMAN!!!

I would love to marry a girl... but marrying a guy is also fine with me.. :)

im bi sexual and currently having a mutual understanding with a girl..and I want to be my girlfriend..

in my country same sex marriage is not allow.. because we are a catholic/christian country who believes that the couple who can marry each other should be opposite sexes... =/ if you are lesbian/gay/bi here most of the time your family will not accept you or everyone around you will hate you.. but luckily everyone around me accept me for who I am :)

I would like to go to cambodia one day. I am glad to hear they are so open minded and accepting there I hope it stays that way and that is spreads. Though at the moment I am with somoen of the oposite gender if things don't turn out I might end up with someone of the same gender also my father and uncle are both homosexual so I grew up believing it was natural unlike so many people in this world.

I grew up with a lesbian mom, so me being a lesbian wasn't very hard. I didn't tell a lot of people until I was around 18 or so. Most everyone already knew, its just that I never made it and issue, so it never was one. I think Cambodia would be an amazing place to go. Someday, I would like to visit there!

I hope this world becomes like Cambodia.
I'm bisexual, leaning more to girls and being in the Philippines is kind of hard. Some people here are accepting of drag queens, but at the same time discriminating them. It's very confusing.

well, if I'm totally in love with a girl, I'd marry her if she'd allow me too.

Whoever I fall in love with and is good to Eric is who I will marry.
Doesn't matter if that person is a man or a women or in a completely different country

Though the distance would be hell . . . . .

When I marry I wanna marry a person, definitly. I don't really care female/male/otherwise ( Yay for pansexuality) and I'm not sure if I even AM going to marry. It depends on the right person at the right time. Marriage is complicated so it might just not work for me. But if it does... Canada is 100% gay marriage approved so at least I've got assurances that its possible. :3

Where I live gay marriage is not allowed and my girlfriend does not believe in marriage because she sees it only as a piece of paper. So where as I would like to be with her for the rest of my life as would she with me we are going to have a commitment ceremony which to me is more important than being married and having a paper that says so.

People now a days are so narrow minded and unaccepting of something that is purely natural. They see it as abnormal. I would not wish the hardships of being gay on anyone honestly. My mother is just now learning to accept it because both me and my sister are lesbians. My father is okay with my sister being this way as long as she gives him grandchildren, but as for me he is not okay with it. I have not spoken to my father in a little over a year and a half and honestly do not plan on it.

Well as far as I remember, the paper allows a couple extra benefits ^^;;; I can't remember what exactly, but there are legal perks to being legally registered as a married couple... not necessarily a traditional ceremony.. but just the paper signing part... which is why it's such a big debate right now.

Personally, no. I don't want to get married to a woman because I have a man in my life that I couldn't dream of ever leaving..

However if he wasn't the love of my life, and I fell in love with a female instead, then sure... I'd love to be able to marry her.

yea the whole legally getting married thing that allows for other perks is true, but yea. i dunno. but they are also changing things to where domestic partners can get benefits from each other as well. :)

I've always wonder about the perks. I'm married but I haven't seen many benefits other than being with the one I love. Not that if I could do it all again I wouldn't. It's a personal preference I guess.

Ahhh~ I see it

It's stuff like, if you die and don't have a will, your marriage partner gets to inherit stuff. If not married... your stuff just goes to state ^^;;;

Yeah I would love to get married if I meet the perfect guy who can make this sad shy boy smile at will xD oh and gay marrage is legel in Ontario canada ;D

I would rather just get married in Connecticut. It would be 10x easier. 8D

I'd love to be able to wed my partner in more states in the US,hopefully in the near future more states will be open to it. Although I think that marriage doesn't have to define a connection between two people, it's very nice to have that option and status. It's also a plus for a lot of legal standings.
