Gay marriage should be legal

Pro, with all do respect, the one thing that frustrates me more than anything in debates is when your opponent puts words into your mouth, this debate is coming to an end, so for future references please refrain from doing so. Never once in my argument did I mention "man HAS TO have sex with a woman to make a baby." I simply said as you quoted "the fact of the matter is 100% of kids are still born by a man and a woman." I am well aware of the unnatural, but still valid homosexual experiments to make children, but, as I stated earlier, the fact of the matter is 100% of kids are still born by a man and a woman. If two women go to a sperm bank, were did that sperm come from? A man, thus 100% of kids are still born by a man and a woman. If two males invest in a surrogate, what gender is that surrogate? A woman, thus 100% of children are born by a male and a female. In reference to your argument about the government not needing babies. I'm debating with myself as to whether or not you were being serious. America is nowhere near overpopulation. AIDS- I stated earlier, and listed actually statistics. It's great if you personally feel that Gay marriage will stop the spread of AIDS due to less sleeping around, however I stated statistics. 80% of marriages have one partner or more who has cheated at some point or another. On top of that, I don't know if your experiences have been the same as mine, but many gay couples I know have an ‘open relationship.' Meaning they are more than ok with their partner sleeping with another. If they currently feel that way now, getting married isn't going to change any of that. How many straight couples can you think of that are in a open relationship before marriage? "In terms of gay sex being unnatural, lots of things are unnatural." This whole paragraph has nothing to do with the debate at all. I simply cleared your confusion on as to why disease spreads threw the homosexual community. "If we lived our lives completely natural we would all die around 30." Once again this whole paragraph has nothing to do with anything. "If a man were to ‘release' inside of another man, in an area which was created for the sole purpose of releasing feces, you're creating an environment for disease." ‘And I really hope that your comment about making it illegal to be gay was tongue in cheek. First of all, those laws would be completely useless since we don't have surveillance in people's bedrooms, and also, that would be like making it illegal to be black: being gay is no more of a choice.' My comment about making being gay illegal was completely sarcastic; humoring the fact that you actually believe legalizing gay marriage would lessen the spread of STDS. Gay marriage isn't going to stop the rapid spread of STDS. ‘I have full confidence that there are many states that would vote to allow gay marriage if given the chance.' That's great… well we live in a democracy, and they do have the chance. California just passed proposition 8 last year making gay marriage illegal. Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, California (with the passage of Prop 8), Colorado, Florida, Georgia, Kansas, Kentucky, Idaho, Louisiana, Michigan, Mississippi, and Missouri are a few states who all were given the chance, and banned gay marriage. There is a HUGE difference between what you personally believe, and facts. You can spend an entire argument, such as your last one, stating things you ‘personally believe', but until you state the facts, your arguments mean nothing. I conclude this debate by restating my final paragraph in my last argument. Finally I would like to point out the obvious, we live in a democracy. Gay marriage is not illegal because the Government keeps fighting it, it's illegal because the voters aren't ready for it, and America isn't ready for it. When America is ready for Gay marriage, they will vote pro until then… VOTE CON. 1.http://lesbianlife.about.com... 2.http://www.catalogs.com... 3.Common Sense
