I'm writing this post on my iPod Touch since my laptop is dead. So it will lack my usual fun and exciting boldings, images, captions and embedded videos.
There's not too much to joke about though when you think about New York State's Legislature having approved same-sex marriage. Following Governor Cuomo's signature, it'll be law soon.
This is important for many reasons, most of which are too important for me to just give a brief review here. (That and typing with my thumbs is harder than I thought it would be.) However, I'm proud to say that where I grew up understands that -- if the state is going to recognize certain relationships -- then it doesn't matter who that consenting person is.
Whether such relationships are based on love or whatever is up to the individuals. I'm just glad that a state recognizes that the relationship I share is one that others can share. There is no argument (that is not bigoted or vile) that what I share is absolutely dependent on what anatomical features my spouse has. I'm attracted to whom I'm attracted and married the person I love.
So here we are. Hopefully is recognition continues with other states (if this is indeed a state issue) without delay.
