Yeah I've always just kinda laughed at a lot of the activists here. Gays can get a bad rap in some places in the west still but their cries of oppression make me think they don't really understand that in perhaps half the world still being gay can literally be a death sentence.

I've never been much of an "ally" don't really see any good reasons why gay marriage shouldn't be legal, but at the same time it effects my life absolutely zero if it's not and there are far more pressing political concerns I have. Some of the activist types get mad at that but frankly, while I will perfectly accept the fact that for gay people the issue is more important to them, what good does marriage do you if you can't afford rent anyway?
