Do you ever feel lost? Like you're not sure which direction to take in life? Let's face it - sometimes we need help navigating this crazy thing called college. That's why I'm here. Consider me your third-party, impartial columnist. You have questions, and baby doll, I've got your answers. Or rather, I can provide my spin on things. So sit on down and buckle up, 'cause you're in for a big ol' Sass Attack!
If y'all finding yourself in a hardship, seek me out at entertainment@thetriangle.org. Make sure to put "ADVICE" in the subject line. I got your back, sugar.
Do you think I could get married to a man, despite the fact that I, myself, am a man?
Absolutely not - I forbid it. Next question.
I am kidding of course. And the answer is quite simple.
Despite the fact that the government will not recognize your marriage or grant you the rights that heterosexual couples get, does not mean you cannot get married.
Tangent: I do not believe this is moral! If I were President De La Cré, I would legalize gay marriage in a heartbeat.
I believe that two consenting adults should be allowed to sign a binding contract of matrimony and receive full partner benefits, no matter what genders they are.
Honestly, it is neither the government nor, quite frankly, the publics business with who you are in love with and decide to marry. That is your business!
Back to your question. Let's say you have met Mr. Right - what is stopping you from walking down the aisle? The government does not say it is illegal to get a gay marriage; it just says it won't recognize you as husband and husband.
So go for it; have a fabulous ceremony. Walk down that aisle knowing that you can stand up and say that your love will not be suppressed.
I am a lesbian, but I think I'm in love with my best friend. The kicker is, my best friend is a man. What is going on?
Um, I love my best friend. She is a woman, and I'm pretty sure that I'm still straight.
