Sorry I didn't post anything yesterday, I was mega-super-insanely busy with all the New Year lark. So, to make up for it, I am going to write about a matter that is quite close to my heart for many reasons, and something that I will be able to go into major detail about.
The quote of which I am talking is actually one of mine. I'm sure you have heard other people saying it, and I'm not trying to gain possession over it, but it is one that I use and believe in.
'Love has no gender'
Ryan Trowbridge
Love isn't a person, it is a feeling, so how can a feeling have a gender. Angriness is not a 'male' feeling for example, anyone can feel it, and feel it's effects, and love should be the same. Now this really hits me hard, because it is so true. People in the LGBT community most definitely do not get enough rights. Especially when it comes to loving each other. Love is like a game of spin the bottle, whoever it lands on, that's who it has to be, you can't just change that, and people can't change that for you. If you decide you love someone of any gender it should be allowed. Marriage is about love right? That's what the Church teaches is it not? That you should love each other with all your heart etc. etc. blah blah. So what the Church are saying is that gays or lesbians do not love each other if they want to get married? Who are they to announce that someone loves someone or not? If the Church stated that one straight man did not love his wife, there would be a total overthrow of the church and it would probably make the newspapers.
Yet the Church are allowed to do this to people of a different sexual orientation. Which is another complete balls-up of the Church's teachings. They teach we are all equal, and then go and do this.
What I'm trying to say overall is, you can't help who you fall in love with, be it man, woman or both, love is a feeling, not a gender.
