Study: Same-sex marriage in 20 years had no negative effects

The U.S. has not seen any negative effects on marriage, divorce or living arrangements among all couples since Massachusetts issued the first state-sanctioned, same-sex marriage licenses 20 years ago, a new analysis says.

...

The analysis found that after states legalized marriage for same-sex couples, marriage numbers jumped in those states at rates greater than what could be accounted for by the new marriages of same-sex couples alone.

Researchers found no consistent evidence of an increase in divorce as a consequence of legalizing marriage for same-sex couples.

The analysis suggests that issuing marriage licenses to same-sex couples had, if anything, led to a small positive impact on marriage attitudes among high school seniors.

But there have been more hurricanes per season, and we're getting hotter summers and colder winters. If that's not the gays, what is it? Greenhouse gases?

And the frogs are WAY gayer in Massachusetts now, why is no one talking about it?!

Yes the gays control the weather. And until Taco Tuesday becomes a Federal Holiday, the hurricanes WILL continue!!

Taco Tuesday: not just the weekly romantic night for lesbians anymore!

I support any legislation that supports lesbians and/or tacos. All REAL patriots do!

The honorable @tenchiken is recognized for House Bill, "AMERICA DEMOCRACY AND TACO DAY", which will enshrine Taco Tuesday and Election Day as a combined federal holiday to encourage universal participation in democracy by voting, carnitas, guacamole and salsa.

this shit would pass with a landslide

all the hot air coming out of everyone's mouth over this and every other social wedge issue

But there have been more hurricanes per season, and we’re getting hotter summers and colder winters.

There have also been recessions and pandemics. I only bring them up because they're specifically mentioned in the Gay Agenda, article 69, section 666, paragraph 13.

I keep telling people they need to learn the true threat about the gay agenda, it's rule 34. Don't search about it unless you're a true conservative.
