Had I been asked my view about gay marriage a few months ago,
my off the cuff remark would have been it doesn't affect me so I don't really
care.
However, as the topic has been all over the media for the past few months (and I'm
sure in reality, it's been under discussion for years), I've had time
to think.
As a father of 4 kids, the law of averages surely means there is a chance one of them will be gay.
I don't want to assume but I used to think it would be one of the
boys (unless all boys under 5 like pink and mummy's shoes!). As they've got older football and fighting has kicked in, so perhaps not. Maybe one of the girls.
One of them does have a massive 'girl crush' on an American TV star....

This would be perfectly understandable!
If this turns out to be the case, they may want to settle down with their partner and who knows maybe have a traditional wedding. Both my girls have been confirmed so why shouldn't they want a church wedding.
I'm not a religious person but I do know there is an Old and New Testament. Maybe another Testament needs to be introduced to drag the church into the 21st century - A Modern Testament.
As a parent I want my kids to be happy in whatever they do so if it came down to a vote on whether or not there should be gay marriages, I would firmly put my mark in the YES box.
Equal Rights and Common Sense should prevail.
These are my ramblings based on what I believe in and nothing else. I'm not open to debate on this matter but please feel free to leave a comment.
