Response to: Prop Eight Should Be Called Prop Hate

My response to Jenny Block’s article on Prop 8:

In my previous life as a wedding planner, same-sex marriages made up a huge chunk of my business in Toronto. Besides my Canadian clients, I had clients from Bermuda, Michigan, Texas and California and was always amazed at the distances people would travel to tie the knot, when Toronto was temporarily the gay marriage capital of North America.

When greeting the many guests that would always fly in to take part, or watching the ceremony or celebration after the fact, the love in the room was always the focus. Gay, straight, you didn’t notice.

Because it doesn’t matter. It’s always so infuriating to see how many people think have the right to decide how someone else’s life should be lived.

Thanks for another great post Jenny! Here’s hoping that one day everyone will be able to just write happy posts about this subject.
