Chocolate-covered Prejudice

Okay, so first things first.... I will have a recurring chapter called "chocolate-covered prejudice", and each time I put it up, it will cover all of those 'lovely' prejudices and discriminations and things relating to them that society, the media, politician, etc., try to cover up with sugary sour sticky sweetness that just doesn't cut it. You know what I mean - the stuff that's like a gian donut - know matter how good they make it look, it's really bad, and no matter what angle you look at it from, you can almost always see the big gaping hole that shows it's really just a load of crap. Am I making sense?

So, today's chocolate-covered prejudice is simple. My friend Chris (a.k.a., Nelfy) posted this on her blog, and asked others to pass it on.....

1. Being Gay Is Not Natural

And real Americans always reject unnatural things like eyeglasses, polyester, and air conditioning, tattoos, piercings and silicon breasts...

2. Gay Marriage Will Encourage People To Be Gay

In the same way that hanging around tall people will make you tall.

3. Legalizing Gay Marriage Will Open The Door To All KindsOf Crazy Behavior

People may even wish to marry their pets because a dog has legal standing and can sign a marriage contract. Lamps are next.

4. Straight Marriage Has Been Around A Long Time And Hasn't Changed At All

Hence why women are still property, blacks still can't marry whites, and divorce is still illegal.

5. Straight Marriage Will Be Less Meaningful If Gay Marriage Were Allowed

And we can't let the sanctity of Britney Spears' 55-hour just-for-fun marriage be destroyed.

6. Straight Marriages Are Valid Because They Produce Children

So therefore, gay couples, infertile couples, and old people shouldn't be allowed to marry because our population isn't out of control, our orphanages aren't full yet, and the world needs more children.

7. Obviously Gay Parents Will Raise Gay Children

Since, of course, straight parents only raise straight children.

8. Gay Marriage Is Not Supported By Religion

In a theocracy like ours, the values of one religion are imposed on the entire country. That's why we have only one religion in America.

9. Children Can Never Succeed Without A Male And A Female Role Model

Which is exactly why we as a society expressly forbid single parents to raise children.

10. Gay Marriage Will Change The Foundation Of Society; WeCould Never Adapt To New Social Norm

Just like we haven't adapted to cars, the service-sector economy, or longer life spans.
