Big Box of Gay Marriage
Friday, May 16th, 2008Yesterday The California Supreme Court took a stance for equality and what’s right by overturning the archaic ban on gay marriage. Yes we called it archaic, we’re talking to you Missouri! The judges reaffirmed their belief that all residents of this state should be treated the same under the law. Go figure!
Now here’s some famous folks talking to The Advocate about this historic day
Ellen DeGeneres:
“I’m thrilled that the California supreme court overturned the ban on gay marriage. I can’t wait to get married. We all deserve the same rights, and I believe that someday we’ll look back on this and not allowing gays to marry will seem as absurd as not allowing women to vote.
P.S. I’m registered at Crate & Barrel.”

T.R. Knight:
Our ‘certain inalienable rights’ are protected today. It makes me proud to live in a country that works to correct its sins.”
Melissa Etheridge:
“I feel they have made an honest woman of me. What a wonderful blessing for us and the gay community. We’re moving forward. It makes me feel happy for the whole human race that we are finally getting out of our differences and coming together and we are putting this all behind us. It really is going to be the thing that we talk to our kids and our grandkids and say, ‘That was the olden days — wasn’t that ridiculous?’”
Marc Jacobs:
” Who to love and how to love should be up to the individual or the couple. Enough said!”
And what would gay stuff be without music? Just for good measure, here’s Commitment Ceremony by Julie Goldman and Kate McKinnon. (warning, this will get stuck in your head).
