Or, as we used to call it, treating other people with respect. The golden rule, doing unto others, all that. I don't understand when being nasty to people became a reasonable thing to do, and being nice was somehow wrong.The stupidity of the no voters sentiment toward the yes vote, in that example gains no traction . It's clearly moronic.
The yes voters cliche of equality is not political correctness is more tactful but equally as ineffective from an influential perspective.
I'm just so sick of the overall level of forceful political correctness in general.

People can't be made to be "politically correct" - or polite - but I don't know why so many seem to feel they can only stand up for their right to self-expression by being as unpleasant as possible.
I haven't yet heard an argument for no that wasn't, at its base, because marriage equality would give people the idea that you could be as good a husband/wife/parent if you were gay as if you were straight, and we can't allow that idea. So, yeah, kind of bigoted.
And the only reason anyone is talking about all these other issues is because if they actually argued in the point being voted on they know they would have no chance.
