Jennifer—I found your blog through straight spouses. My father was gay, straight mother and my screwed up relationships reflect my 52 years of struggles. I also wrote a book. I’d love to chat with you.

Comment on Judge Overturns California Ban on Gay Marriage by Connie

I don’t get all the hoopla. Well, let me restate, I don’t get all the hoopla against gay marriage. I grew up being taught the “of what consequence is it to you” frame of mind. And really, of what consequence is it to me? So two consenting adults want to marry and be afforded the same rights and priviledges as any other married couple, so what? Exactly how does that affect me or my children in any way? And how can we possibly trust the majority to determine what somebody else’s human/civil rights should be? Really? Voting on human rights???? REALLY??? Prop 8 should never have occured in the first place. The whole idea is ludicrous. If we allowed the majority to determine what human/civil rights minorities should have women would not be voting and interracial marriages would still be illegal.

I know this is an old post, but you just commented on my blog today for the first time (I think? Though I do remember the KoQ blog, though.)

I’m kind of like you, on the one hand I don’t think it’s anyones business.

I don’t really “care” if she’s gay. I suppose if I was a Fundamentalist Christian Right Wing Nut Job (not that there’s anything wrong with that…) I would want to make sure she didn’t make the country “gay” by allowing Gay Marriage or whatever Gay issues happen to come up before the Supreme Court.

I have to admit that I’m out of my depth talking about this issue.

I don’t care who is gay, unless I have the potential of sleeping with him. (I’ve already mourned the loss of the possibility that I’ll meet Ricky Martin back stage at a concert and have sexo rizado insano for one night.)

But I have no issues with gay marriage, parenting, adoption, whatever except that they don’t get the same rights that straights do.

Now that I’ve lived to see a black president, I guess the next big hurdle for America is voting for an openly gay politician.

Get over it, y’all. Bigotry is not ok. And to those people who use religion to back up their bigotry, they need to remember that the bible also tells us not to judge.

Leave that to God.

*getting off soapbox*

Sorry for ranting, LOL.

The Supreme Court is the one place where sexual orientation is irrelevant. Decisions made by justices should be on the basis of law and nothing else. Where it gets tricky, and the main reason Republicans and Democrats battle over nominations, is in the interpretation of law.

Despite their protestations to the contrary, Republicans want judges who will hand down decisions consistent with conservative philosophy. Democrats prefer a more liberal approach. The end result is that recent decisions seem to be implementing a conservative agenda disguised as Supreme Court Rulings. Despite promises to give heavy weight to precedent, Justice Roberts seems to ignore precedence when he finds in convenient.

But I digress, Kegan’s sexuality has no bearing on her nomination. There is nothing to know that should come under consideration as to whether or not she is qualified to take a seat on the Supreme Court.

To me, there’s a fine line here between speculating about orientation and treating long-time single people as suspect. The “are you gay?” question is just an extension of the “why haven’t you married?” question.

The truth is, we’ve never treated orientation as germane to the suitability of a person to serve on the Supreme Court. If we had, every prior nominee would have been asked, “OK, we know you have an opposite-sex spouse, but not every long-married person is straight. Please explain: Are you straight, bisexual or gay?”

We’ve also never asked nominees about how their personal experience (or lack of it) with marriage will impact their rulings on marriage, speculating that married justices will be biased against the interests of unmarried folks, or vice versa.

Besides the gay/bi/straight categories of sexuality, there is also a range of sexual interest. If, for any reason, Kagan leans toward being asexual and content with single life, I don’t think that’s any of my business.

Just my 2-cents worth….

I’m going to go out on a limb and say most definitely. Not that there’s anything wrong with that.
