I'm a Californian, live in the San Francisco area, and I'm all for it. I'm not gay, I'm happily married but am pro gay marraige for two main reasons.

First-I really hate when other, mostly conservative Christian types, try to tell other people how they should live based on their values. Frankly, its none of my business if a gay couple wants to get married. Doesn't matter if I approve or not.

Second- Just a little over 40 years ago my marriage would have been illegal in some states. I'm white and my wife is Asain and if this were 1960 and I lived in Virginia I could be sent to jail for miscegenation. The same arguments of "it's not natural" and "its against God's plan" would be used. Fuck that. I don't really see my position 40 years ago as that different from homosexual couple position now.

Bottom line is it doesn't change my life one way or another if they get married. If it makes them happy why not?
