Poor Leo Lane - you really are full of hate, aren't you? First, the Australian legal definition of marriage was changed without any public consultation by Howard in 2004. Second, how does the marriage of two "perverts" as you put it, change your life in the slightest?

Hownow: how does the marriage of two "perverts" as you put it, change your life in the slightest?

Well, obviously what two perverts do to each other sexually offends her. Like it does to most Australians, except, of course, poofs, etc. It offends me too. As lefties & the Politically Correct know, anything that offends people should be stopped.

Herenow, your false assertion, based on your spite matches your ignorance of the law of marriage.
The law of marriage was not changed. What was legislated by Howard simply affirmed the law as it stood. He codified the existing law.
Let us know what you think the law was before it was “changed", as you falsely assert.
If your statement was not based on ignorance then it was based on your dishonesty, because it is untrue.
I will ignore your stupid question. A change to the very basis of marriage affects every citizen

Technically, I have no problem with gay marriage, but I see no point in the grandstanding as all government departments and major corporation already recognise same-sex partners as "de facto" anyway.

What most people think of as "marriage" is actually "weddings".
The ceremonial act can be engaged in right now by *anyone*. It has nothing to do with the law.

I am only opposed to legal reform, as it's currently being used as part and parcel of the leftist utopian dictatorship, and anything they support MUST be opposed, until such ideology disappears from this planet.

I am also aware that everywhere it has been introduced, critics and "non-compliants" are sued, fired, fined, picketed, etc.
The "rights" of all other parties are negated, and only the gay couples "rights" are validated.

Only if there were a legal guarantee that "non-compliants" will be safe from prosecution can this reform be acceptable.
I won't hold my breath.
