For 72 Days
Chris Williams and Juan McCoy have been together for 13 years and are from Maryland. They met at work and still work together and their relationship is as strong as ever. Juan says of Chris, “He brings balance to my life. Whenever I'm agitated he always calms me down. I think I balance him out too.” Recalling Chris' recent birthday, Juan adds, “I love him beyond what I can actually express. We're whole separately, but we're something even better when we're together.” They cannot get married, but Kim Kardashian can... for 72 days.
Kim Kardashian is divorcing some dude she married after a whopping 72 days of marriage. Their engagement was 85 days (according to the internet which always gets everything right.) Kardashian’s divorce in and of itself is not interesting (hey, she made a cool ten million off a celebrity sycophantic culture that cares about such crap.) What is interesting (and heartbreaking) is that wingnuts probably think that teh gayz have so thoroughly ruined traditional marriage, what with teh gayz’s insistence on being gay and getting gay-married, that Kim Kardashian never really stood a chance.
Don’t be mad at Kim and Kris. They probably lived next door to a gay couple. How could the Kardashian-Humphries marriage last longer than 72 days with a bunch of gays living next door actively ruining their lives?
Think about it.
Check out the Buzzfeed link. It might make your eyes rain at the injustice of it all.

Make that 21 couples. Today is our anniversary, we have been gay committed for 27 years, despite all those hetero’s bad examples. (funny that my spell check corrected hetero’s to hater’s)
Your spell checker got it right. Not that all heteros are haters (“some of my best friends …”), but hater was the better word in this context.
Congratulations. May you have many happy years to come.
And should you want to get married one day, come on up here to the True North Strong and Free where we’re just that tiny bit more civilized.
Its bad enough that many of my gay friends have to go through hoops just to visit their parents in the hospital while K-Dash treats weddings like a fashion phase.
I actually want to send this to Newt Gingrinch. Kim Kardashian is of no never mind, unto herself, but thrice-married-I-cheated-for-love-of-America Newt Gingrich actually has something to say about these couples and their suitability for marriage.
Ugh.

Maggie Gallagher of NOM:
“I’m reluctant to criticize any given individual who divorces because moral judgments are hard without more information that it is my business to know – and celebrity divorces are too common to warrant special notice. Hollywood in general and Kim Kardashian in particular support gay marriage. Perhaps that makes sense, if the speed of her divorce reflects a reduced commitment to the marriage.”

OMGoddess! “The evidence that we are wrong is really evidence that we’re right. Just lick the back of this stamp/chew on this piece of blotter paper or whatever, and you’ll see it too.”
