Blah blah blah...
Maar ja.

Sommigen weten hier blijkbaar beter dan alle homo's in gans Europs samen wat discriminatie is en wat niet.

Het homohuwelijk is een voorkeursbehandeling op humanitaire gronden, maar de weigering van een voorkeursbehandeling is geen discriminatie.

American Sociological Association Member Resolution on Proposed U.S. Constitutional Amendment Regarding Marriage:
"WHEREAS a constitutional amendment defining marriage as between a man and a woman intentionally discriminates against lesbians and gay men as well as their children and other dependents by denying access to the protections, benefits, and responsibilities extended automatically to married couples"

American Psychological Association: Resolution on Sexual Orientation and Marriage
"THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED That the APA believes that it is unfair and discriminatory to deny same-sex couples legal access to civil marriage and to all its attendant benefits, rights, and privileges"

Statement on Marriage and the Family from the American Anthropological Association
"The results of more than a century of anthropological research on households, kinship relationships, and families, across cultures and through time, provide no support whatsoever for the view that either civilization or viable social orders depend upon marriage as an exclusively heterosexual institution. Rather, anthropological research supports the conclusion that a vast array of family types, including families built upon same-sex partnerships, can contribute to stable and humane societies.

The Executive Board of the American Anthropological Association strongly opposes a constitutional amendment limiting marriage to heterosexual couples."
