How does a gay marriage obey this?

Be a fruit is not being fruitfull.
I had a gay boss for several years. He was not outspoken. Never once did he discuss his gay impersonator bar. It made him wealthy.
He was great to work for.
What does that have to do with life expectancy?

You're fallacious obfuscation still is unable to support your assertion.

Coadie, you struggle with logic and interpreting data.
I have noticed you never dig up facts and statistics. Do you know why? Have you ever conducted a behavioral science experiment or survey?

The largest problem with research of gays is the data acquisition. It is done by "self assessment" and is not neutral.
If the average gay in a committed relationship says he has 8 outside encouners a year, how can that be tested for accuracy?

Perhaps if they were married they would be more monogamous.

You really said a lot. Both parties to a marriage raise expections of changes in the other one. Divorce is the time after expectations are not met. Marriage will not change "trust issues"

Re: Gay Marriage: For or Against?

A guy that I work with has chosen a gay lifestyle and lives with his partner. He has no desire to "marry" his partner, however, he feels to be realize better tax rates (married vs single) and for insurance benefits that it might be beneficial.

See, I have a problem with that.
