Robert,
Please go back to school for a day, a year or a lifetime, however long it takes, and learn the correct use of the apostrophe. It does not occur whenever a word ends in 's'. It indicates the possessive case, belonging to the person or object in question. It is never, repeat, never, used with a simple plural 's'. Please get it right, it doesn't do much for your credibility littering your posts with superfluous apostrophes. Peter Posted by Peter D, Monday, 22 August 2011 5:40:23 PM

Peter I'm sorry that you are so constrained by having things just so that you are having difficulty understanding my meaning. Thankfully most posters are able to get past that and focus on the content rather than punctuation, spelling etc.
Perhaps we need something similar to Godwin's law for those who choose to attack another posters punctuation, spelling etc, in what is generally a legible post. A sure sign that you don't actually have anything to contribute. R0bert Posted by R0bert, Monday, 22 August 2011 6:16:39 PM

<<suzeonline, Lexi, McReal & Pelican etc, i see none of you have dared to comment… >>
Counting myself as part of the etc, I've posted some data here: http://forum.onlineopinion.com.au/thread.asp?article=12487#216068 It ends "In summary, from 1911 to 1921, the figures for widowhood and divorce did not change significantly. But the married proportion of the population increased by 5%. Whatever the causes of the Melbourne riots 'fatherlessness' was not one of them." Posted by WmTrevor, Monday, 22 August 2011 6:38:02 PM

I don't have the time to comment on every article especially ones that are similar to others where I have already commented and could not offer anything new. Lost of talk about morality on this issue including around IVF and plastic surgery. Who decides these things are immoral? I don't particularly think plastic surgery is the answer to people's insecurities but immoral? Drawing a long bow there. Isn't it equally as immoral to force heterosexuality on gay people or to force people to marry a person of the opposite sex to live out a life of misery and despair. This is akin to facism. Living in truth is better than living a lie surely. I still don't understand the harm to society. Even if homosexuals don't marry they still won't conform to your idea of 'morality' or of 'family'. It is cruel and unfair to assume that people who don't fall within the heterosexual range are somehow wanting or less worthy as a human being. Posted by pelican, Monday, 22 August 2011 7:53:00 PM

pelican,
Many effeminite men whom society easily identify as homosexual are happily married family men. However many butch men engage in homosexual acts. Living a biological lie is the lot of those who engage in sex with the same gender. Posted by Philo, Monday, 22 August 2011 8:19:56 PM

Hardly anybody wants Bert and Ernie to get married - they are virtually asexual puppets, FFS.
Someone commented somewhere recently there is a slight correlation in some family lines between high female fecundity and homosexuality.
