Lifting Gay Ban in South Dakota?

In the state that I live in there is currently a gay marriage ban. A group of people is taking this to a higher court. In other words if this all works out South Dakota could be the next state to have Gay marriage. All I have to say is THAT IT IS ABOUT TIME! I am tired of people thinking that they have a say who other people marry. If you don't believe in gay marriage, then don't have one. Stop trying to push your beliefs on me. I also don't see why it should be a big deal if someone is gay or not. Why is it called coming out? It should be just a part of you. People make that sort of thing all about who a person is. I a female, and I chose to not identify with a sexual orientation. I have come to learn that I just like people. Honestly I myself am tired of people casting judgement on other people because of who they like. It is the new civil rights movement. We are more than this, and I am disappointed in people in this country. Anyway I remember telling my mom a really long time ago that I didn't just like boys, and she gave me this whole speech that she didn't want to see it, and that if I was with a girl that I have to keep it to myself. I told her "Listen, I am not going to hide who I am to you. If you don't like that part of my life you have a choice. You can be a good parent and love all of me or you can get the fuck out of my life." I was happy that I was able to say that. That was the thing that did it for me. This was the start of me not putting up with my mother's crap anymore. Anyway if you are a different are not straight I have an idea of how you feel from time to time from my own experiences. I will continue to fight for my rights and yours. Also one day there will be a day where we can look back and say "remember when orientation was a big deal?" One day, one day...
