Win Marriage Back: Make it Real!

Equality California is launching the largest grassroots mobilization and public education campaign for the freedom to marry in California history.

To kick it off, we are airing a series of TV commercials statewide. The ads feature real couples and LGBT youth discussing why marriage matters and how inequality hurts.

Real stories will win marriage back.

You can have that belief. I'm not going to tell someone they can't have a belief, *but* I don't think that gives you the right to prevent people from marrying or having kids. I have two gay dads, and they got married last year. Our family doesn't need your approval, but we do expect to be tolerated and left in peace and given the same rights as everyone else.

I really hope you're not insinuating that homosexuality is caused by rape.

I don't have a hatred for the opposite sex, I love females and emotionally connect with them very well... just the feeling isn't sexual and intimate.

I also don't have a gender confusion, I am a guy.. I want to be a guy... I don't want to look like a girl or feel like one.

Funny thing, my best friend pulled the "gay = was raped" card, and it is so offensive to someone who is natually gay, knows it isnt a choice...

Oh my god that's my friend and sorority sister with her moms! Go MK

@chellebell07 - people like me did not make your life miserable, your inability to utilize effective birth control made you miserable; the taxpayer is not responsible for your mistakes.

@kristinaallar - the entire pro-gay 'marriage' movement brings up the false argument of 'rights', when you all fail to realize that everyone already has the same right - to marry another person of the opposite sex. And don't chastise me about how I talk after calling me an idiot and perverted, it's hypocritical

I strongly disagree with this ad. Thank God Michigan doesn't have gay marriage clearance.

[kristinaallar]

@braid162 You are an idiot. Yes, it is healthy that she is opposed to marriage because the country she lives in will not recognize her parents' love as REAL. That's the best reason there is for her to oppose it. I'm guessing you have no clue what love is. I only wish your parents' marriage had not been allowed thereby preventing your birth and subsequent perversion. Btw, Cynthia is my mother. If I were you, I'd watch how you talk about something and someone which you know nothing about.

Sodomy laws have been ruled unconstitutional since Lawrence v. Texas (2003). Marriage has been redifined many times before (civil non-religious marriage, inter-racial marriage). Same-sex marriage exists, and will remain, in an increasing number of countries (it's November and Argentina now joined the list!). Our Constitution guarantees separation of Church and State. Prop. 8 and DOMA constitute unnecesary interference.

Hate speech against LGBT people is illegal on YouTube. Don't waste energy arguing with the trolls - they cling on to their hate, becuase it is all they have. Instead, thumbs down their comments and mark them as spam. If enough of us do that, their accounts will be suspended.

Outstanding video - thank you so much! Ignore the homophobic comments if you can.

99% of statistics are made up

there is a lot of NASTY bitchery on this site which makes it very hard to support gay folks. It's sad. If you start something don't be surprised by the answers or that like breeds like.
