The marriage survey result shows that Australia is
better than our politicians give us credit for.

Opinionated 2, you apparently are under some misapprehension that the word queer is offensive to gays. Exactly where do you think the letter Q comes from when the term LGBTQ comes from?

Narelle47 and Is Mise,

Hopefully, this will herald the end of all discrimination in this country and we can get on with the task of creating true equality.

I cannot agree with you. We need to discriminate so as to stop further entry of those persons or groups that will not/cannot integrate into our society. It is ridiculous that we continue to bring in people that will not accept our societies norms and have contempt for our laws. Sometimes the cultural gap is simply too great.

Banjo,

That is discrimination OUTSIDE of Australia and I agree with you on that.
I was speaking a little 'tongue in cheek', we will continue to practice discrimination, legislate discrimination and encourage it for the foreseeable future.

For example, discrimination in sport will never end.

Dear Big Nana,

Originally "Queer" was used in a derogatory sense.
Today many LGBTI youth have embraced this word.
However, the "Q" in LGBTIQ also stands for "Questioning,"
not just "Queer". So it has different meanings for different
people.

Despite their whopping defeat at the hands of the Australian people. The forums collection of right wing wackos, and religious fundo's, the "No" voting brigade, are still kicking and screaming, protesting loudly, they continue to fight some pathetic rear guard action trying to stop marriage equality becoming law. Not satisfied with suffering an utter defeat at the hands of the people, they prattle on in ugnorence with totally ridiculous nonsense as they plummet earthwards in their Wingless No Campaign Machine, fella's you are about to crash and burn, at any moment a new law will be enacted, giving ALL Australians the same rights when it comes to marriage!

For the Churchies, It wont be long now until the newly weds Martin and Luther nail their legal marriage certificate to the church door.
