Do I have to make up my mind today....based on no knowledge of the proposal that has yet to be drafted ?. I have given absolutely no thought as to what I think it should look like or what should be in it or not in it. I am prepared to wait.......and I think you should give me the courtesy of respecting my rights as an adult and allow me to make my own mind up. After all, is this referendum not about people's rights or are my rights dependant on other factors now

I could be wrong though. I also see the point made regarding St. Patricks day. Perspectives are interesting

frag420 wrote: » A question if you will for those voting no to Same Sex Marriage......Ive kept it very simplistic so there should be no confusion here. Imagine a situation where you have two gentlemen living next door or two ladies. You get on well with them, you know they are homosexual, you know they are happy together. Then one day you find out that they got married while on holidays (in a forward thinking country that allows SSM)........ Would you stop talking to them? Would this disgust you? What I am getting at is this.......if two people who love one another, are committed to one another want to get married and spend the rest of their life together, how in any way at all does this effect you? Does it effect your marriage or how happy you are? Or does it effect your ability to go about your daily life? Ask yourself this, will two people of the same sex getting married to one another have ANY effect at all on you? If the NO voters would be so kind as to list out how this will effect them then I and the rest of the YES voters are all interested in hearing this..... frAg

Rape even within marriage is not traditional. Women leaving work was only happening within the Civil Service afaik. It is also traditional within the Travelling community for girls to wed young i.e. 16/17 years but not traditional within the country as a whole.

Im referring to you being defensive by accusing me of all kinds of thing while I was just posing hypothetical question's to you. If you truly didn't want to engage in discussion on this topic anymore you wouldn't continue replying.
