Please be the one to respond to my example, “ I now pronounce you, spouse and spouse’. What would the priest say in the new world that y’all are creating’
?
Who gives a toss what a god botherer in a frock says, I’m sure at a legally meaningless religious ceremony you could have yourselves pronounced ‘Door and Hinge’ 🤷🏻‍♂️

Hey, DEFINE WOKE. I guess all you have to do is ask DeSantis, he can tell you.
Hey, I am WOKE, which of course means YOU and all the rest of the ultrarightwingnuts are ASLEEP.

And you people will say not one negative statement about this attack on our 10,000 year old language. i.e, they want to to remove husband and wife and use spouse.
Hey, stupid:

2 guys get married. What's to stop them from calling each other their husband?

2 women get married. What's to stop them from calling each other their wife?

You keep acting like language is a new concept for you.

You are all missing the point. It is about your liberal friends and dear leaders with a headlong desire to change things. This is an example. Whew.

In Illinois, non-citizens have been approved to become police officers. That is forbidden by the Constitution. NOW do you get it, as Kev likes to say? Why do liberals keep doing things?

Hold on. My premise is in light of the normalcy of marriage. A girl a guy. Historically 'I now pronounce you husband and wife', which naturally would be a man (husband) and woman (wife). (I love the word natural....man and man? Not natural)
So, on that premise, whatever you just wrote is not relevant. Next you will write about dogs or some such, you folks get so emotional.

Why must you restrict people with rules?

Why do you have a short list of things that are acceptable to you, and a whole shopping list of stuff that is unacceptable to you? Why can't you leave people alone to live their life as they see fit? Why must you be such a Karen? Why do you care what people do if they're not hurting you? Why don't you do something useful like going after the ethics lapses of Supreme Court Justices? You don't care about that, but you care about two happily married people just because they're same sex? What is wrong with you?

But you are hurting me,,and the nation. If I a conservative am asked to speak to a college group, and the screech-libs throw me out, that is hurting me. If you have non-citizens as cops, that is hurting me. To quote you, I have a LONG list of things that are not acceptable to me. The school curriculum of deciding your gender is hurting me and my family and affecting the mental health of my children, whose friends say they are going to change their gender. If Sonhouse can find Trump despicable, I can find liberal movements, 24/7, despicable. Why don't you post to Sonhouse?

Your post is clearly disengenuous.

She overlooks that I often say 'why don't libs leave us the hell alone.' They are in our face. We are not in their face. They are a constant parade of signs about their discontent. Their discontent can only be assuaged by making society change, to make conservatives change. Suzy wants CHANGE, by god, when we independent freedom loving citizens will hardly do what they ask, How can she write that stuff to me when, in fact, she wants my stuff??????????????????? Geez.

For instance, did you see on another post that Zhalanzi thinks that the masses should pay for his insurance and medical care. This is the mind set of Susieann as well. And she wonders how I think like I do?

Suzianne, I am just curious. Would a typical man in your world in a small discussion say to you well, what about when two men get married.? You might imagine that a thought like that could never come into my mind. What real man would ever say something like that?
