Small Pleasures (ANd CONTROVERSY)


"Small Pleasures, Small pleasures, who would deny us these?" The first couple of lines from the song Small Pleasures from the musical Oliver! about the young Oliver Twist. Think about these words, and actually let them seep in. Small pleasures, Who would deny us these? now think instead... WHY WOULD SOMEONE DENY THESE? We're all entitled to our own small pleasures, be it a walk in the park, or sleeping in till six in the evening... We're all entitled to something that makes us happy. This leads me into the topic of Gay Marriage (Yep getting controversial). I am an openly gay man. I"M PROUD TO ADMIT IT BUT I WONT RUB IT IN YOUR FACE! All i want is to be happy and to be married, why would someone deny me this? I want to be married and happy and happy and married (did i mention married). The fact that i can't get married in the US because people think that its a strictly religious thing, and that it'll ruin the sanctity of marriage is ridiculous. May i remind people that one of our "Mainstream" religions (Protestant) was created so that a king could divorce his wife? And now people are trying to tell us that we can't get married because it ruins the sanctity of marriage? That's messed.... Leave me a comment, dear reader, and tell me what you think. (LETS GET CONTROVERSIAL)
