Redefining marriage
I’m talking about marriage this time, but I’m coming at it from 3 very different angles.
What do state lines mean when it comes to recognizing certain marriages? According to one judge, not much.
Is it discrimination to not allow a guy to marry his computer? Even if he loves pornography more than real women? Sounds silly, until you hear how he makes his argument.
And while we’re throwing out the whole idea of man-woman marriage, why not throw out the whole monogamy thing as well? The New Republic makes the case.
