The No voters

[Genie in a Bottle]

With all due respect, isn't that kind of chicken-and-egg? Not to mention the fact same sex parents already can - and do - adopt. A yes vote improves the living situations of these actual families that already do exist.

there were various discussions on this and there was a big fear from teachers that children could be affected by others students bullying etc, only time will tell, hopefully it will not happen

I am delighted at the yes vote.;;what is wrong with love no matter the gender. and by the way, have you had a look at the statistics regarding children in Ireland lately...? I would say they are better off with two well grounded individuals ( or more) than the pretend, 'traditional' relationships that have been in the past;

Time Will tell that,

I voted no, nothing again same sex marriages, wasn't about the adults, just done it really for the children that would be involved

I voted no. Again I consider marraige as between a man and woman. I think there should be a new word coined for same sex unions. I dont think myself homophobic, having enjoyed some mmf action but very camp gayness gives me the creeps too.

+1 for all the above posts. Very well said and i concur with each of them.

+1 Again
Especially the bit about a new word being coined for same sex unions.........I get every time I hear a man talking about his "husband".

Distancing myself from philipkntz remarks about having engaged in mmf fun

Best of both worlds. Don't knock it before you try it. I predict that within 20 years that we will be voting on legislating for 3 & 4 way unions.

disgusted with every one of ye's that voted no

Most of you's probably married yet come here to cheat because your not man enough to be honest in your own relationships.
Yet you's think you have the right to judge others who genuinely love & want to marry their partners.

Very proud that Ireland got it right
