Reply #30: And how many gay people in California didn't want to marry until they knew

[Lyric]

for sure that their marriage wouldn't be dissolved by the courts or overturned by the voters? Perhaps you're different, but as a general rule, people tend to be very wary of willingly subjecting themselves to extreme emotional pain. Until the final ruling, there was always a risk that even the marriages that happened before PropH8 would be nullified. I know *I* would have waited until I knew for sure that I wouldn't be putting my heart at risk of being shredded by the bigots in charge.

Are gay people ALL supposed to be superheroes, willing to risk our hearts at every turn, or are we allowed to be human now and then?
