Gay Marriage until...a break up. Why Gays need to walk the walk.

Why, because we are gay, are we somehow held to a different standard then straight people? This is where the "people" part comes in.

Marriages split up all the time. Hollywood marriages/divorces/break ups are always seemingly more drama filled because everyone is watching and gets to follow along. There is far more straight drama filled hollywood breakups. The same thing plays out everyday privately straight or gay. When it comes to Hollywood drama, most people have the memory of a goldfish.

Remember Ellen & Anne Heche? I don't think it hurt gay marriage. People who are for gay marriage aren't suddenly going to stop being for it because Melissa Etheridge is a jerk. People who are against it aren't going to be more against it. (People who are against it probably don't listen to Melissa anyway lol) People in the middle of the road aren't going to look at gay people and say well, I would be "for it" but Melissa Etheridge screwed it up - she couldn't make it work - so I'm against it all now.

Divorces and break ups are generally ugly. Sexual orientation doesn't determine maturity level, parenting ability or personal accountability.
