I am so proud of our wonderful thread. See, right here is an example of how good gay marriage is , that one wonderful event brought a group of people, gay or straight, male or female from all over the world and created some really wonderful on line friendships.

I saw her on Fox News today bitching because she says she lost just because of her comments against gay marriage.

One thing that crossed my mind the other day -- thinking about fidelity in marriage -- is whether partners in a same-sex marriage find it harder to keep from cheating than partners in opposite-sex marriages.

Anyone care to pipe up on this or is the whole same-sex marriage thing too new? We are, after all, pretty far from hitting a 7-year itch.

We're all human beings, as such, we all have the capacity to make mistakes and to forgive.  Neither side of the fence holds a monopoly on fidelity, and neither side should pretend to hold any kind of monopoly on moral high ground either. 

I know just as many (if not more) straight couples that have cheated on their partners as gay ones.  The keys to any relationship are honesty and communication ... if you want an open relationship, make sure that it's what your partner wants as well ... set the ground rules before hand, and you won't find yourself breaking the rules later.

That being said, my partner and I have been together for 9 years, and I don't share and neither does he ... unless we're talking about Hugh Jackman ... then all gloves are off.
