@jmelo:

I'm getting married next year, probably in September and we intend to make it a proper wedding… Ceremony, a big party after the vows, family and everything...

What are your thoughts about it?

Though generally I think marriage is outmoded, just a way for the society to force people to stay together and to announce to it that someone is no longer available, thereby enforcing faithfulness even when the partner can't be trusted, it's fine if it makes people happy. And there are the legal ramifications to consider.

So, why not? It's about time that no one be spared the misery, sense of imprisonment, and the feeling of having a millstone hung around the neck that married people have been forced to experience all these centuries. All marriages are "same sex marriages" - it's the same sex, day after day.

@Minerboh80:

These hypocritical assholes in the greek goverment made it clear that there wiil never allow gay marriage in Greece. Those pigs!

It will happen there, too, eventually. It's just that they are still a bit sensitive about the whole ancient man/boy thing from 2,000 years ago. Much of history has not been kind to them about that, so they don't want anyone to point and say, "See! I told you so!" But then if you have seen many Greek women, you'd wonder how they can make babies there at all.
