Well seriously, i'm just sick of people using "Gay" as an insult. It isn't clever, it just proves your IQ is lower than a midget.

re: Women Sues Hospital After Being Denied Visitation of Partner

In this topic, we learned that new members can be ignorant and stupid, while veterans (do I get to be a veteran now?) get pissed off at them. On topic though, despite my opinions on gay marriage, it's horrible that she wasn't allowed to see her before she died. I'd have probably flipped out if I was in the same situation. Terribly, terribly sad.

Nah D, you're not the only one, I hope she sues the hospital until she owns it.

Oh God, please don't go down that road. It's quite simple, either read the topic and post a valid comment, or stay out. Now carry on with the actual thread topic please. Thanks.

Loungin' is completely capable of carrying on serious, relevant and interesting discussions - ironically, it's only the people who don't believe that who make the forum appear to be incapable of it.

Open your mind - as that hospital should.

Maybe it's because I come from a fairly sexually-liberated country, but I find it utterly ridiculous that this issue even came up. They're married, therefore they are relatives. Even if the patient was currently unable to verify that, why wasn't the power of attorney enough?

Excuse me saying so but why would a midget have a lower IQ then somebody who is the average height?

I think that it's a ridiculous reason for you not to see the person you love in hospital. She was denied of seeing her partner before she died just because of her sexuality and I think that that's a very poor reason.

I think he meant that a midget is short, talking about a midgets height rather than the IQ of the midget. Either that, or he's just being an arse (still).

Anyways, i thought that although only 3 states allow gay marriage, they all have to recognise homosexual people who are married as being a couple? The whole "full faith an credit" thing? It's rediculous that she wasn't allowed to see her partner as she died because of her sexual orientation.

Wasn't right... but they had the right to refuse her.

She was legally veiwed as a companion to the deceased, not a significnt other.

re: Women Sues Hospital After Being Denied Visitation of Partner

What the hell's with that?

I only had to read up to "Anti-gay city and state"

The stupidest part?

America was the first country to legalize Gay marriages publicly.

Also, 20 years together and they refuse her on that?!

So, in summary, Another reason that America needs to clean itself up already, because if it's not racism, it's gayism or smo-hate or something of the like.

It irritates me so.

The politically correct term is "Homophobia," although I'm sure we all understood what you meant.

First, thanks for the fix Inuyasha. I forgot it.

Second, for a 17 year old, this is douche.
