They're lesbians, genius. You think they're using gay as a derogatory term?
And even if they were being derogatory towards marriage, how's that in some way 'attacking heterosexuals' when gays can get married too?
I still don't quite understand. Does the shirt promote homosexuality or criticize it? Were the people wearing the shirts same-sex partners? If it's in the source, my bad for being a tl;dr person.
Nvm, just read "lesbian couple" haha I'm blind. My bad.

The Bible is much more derogatory towards marriage than that. So therefore Christianity is attacking heterosexuality.Terminator02 said:
The shirt is stupid and shouldn't be worn. They were asking for it. Its not like they were asked to leave for acting gay. As mentioned previously, this is a theme park aimed towards children and the light hearted. I dont have a problem with gay/lesbian people, just those that provoke, and that shirt was provoking.
The shirts saying isn't that bad, at least it's not something over the top like some other gay people wear or don't wear.
Like when old guys were fully naked at the gay pride in Canada, in front of Children.
Not cool.
We're not all like this, honest.

xD The hypocrisy of American culture. It's "TITS or GTFO" but "ew gays!". Don't get me wrong, I'm proud to be American, but I do sympathize with other countries who look down on us. Just so everyone knows, our portrayed image and our media =/= the citizens like me (which make up a good sum of the population.)
I agree.BlueStar said:
People get upset when homosexuals advertise, but is it not the same when anyone advertise their sexuality?
I see countless guys wearing shirts like "Boobies make me smile" "FBI, Female body inspector." And no one gets offended, but someone wearing a shirt such as "Marriage is gay" which can mean several things including happy, that is a problem? Sorry people, but you can't have one side without the other.

Read what Paul had to say about it. Typing this up on a Wii atm so will have to come back to it if you need more than that.Terminator02 said:
Wasn't this a sensitivity thing here. I mean not to come off as rascist or anything but how can they feel justified using that word be it any format if they don't want other people using it. It's kind of like the whole black slang term here. I'm not siding with either of them but they want people to give them due respect than respect should be all around.
I can't agree with you more Catboy, Acceptance needs to be on both sides not just one. I didn't find her shirt offensive but due to nowaday standards I could consider anything offensive and justify it to some degree. It's just irritating.

The saying on the shirt seems open ended to me. One that leaves the reader thinking about what it truly means. Some take it at ground level, some go deeper.
