I read in the paper today a story about how rocker Melissa Etheridge and her wife Julie Cyper announce that their marriage was over, and I must say, I am shocked! This follows closely on the heels of the well publicized DeGeneres/Heche breakup last month. What we are seeing here is a grim portent of future events. How can any of us be sure the the fabric of Americana will remain intact when our celebrity lesbian couples show so little respect for the institutions that made America great? I remember a time when women would happily commit to each other UNTIL DEATH DO THEY PART. They would patronize the local sperm bank and produce two or three children to carry on the ideals of society, secure in the knowlege that their moms loved and cherished them. Sure, sometimes mom came home tired from work, and was not ameniable to mom complaining about the rough day she had had raising the children, but they stayed together and toughed through it. Lesbian marriage ment something then. Society knew that these two folks were committed and loving, and counted on the balancing influence of both mothers to show the kids how to live. Today, we have anything but that. Women happily hop in and out of the sack with each other, ignoring the long term consiquences of such dallyiances on each other and society at large. I say it is time to push harder laws through Congress, ensuring that every child have two mothers who are committed to passing their values on to the next generation. If we don’t act now, future generations will have no same sex role models to hold up for children to emulate, and we will all be poorer for it.
Would slip covers help?
So who’s getting custody of David Crosby’s sperm?
Two lesbians splitting up after marriage is no different than a man and woman splitting, or two men splitting. You still have a child with one parent. Would you explain to me the difference?
It doesn’t matter if the child was produced by a sperm bank, naturally, or whatever. The fact remains that the child is left with one parent.
The morning radio show I listen to said the reason for the breakup was because the kids had started looking like David Crosby. 
I believe that sperm has already morphed, with some assistance, into a pair of young boys. As far as I know, there have not been any announcements of custody decisions. Crosby certainly doesn’t want anything to do with them. From the beginning, he’s considered himself a donor and not a father.
Well watching lesbians has certainly caused the ruin of enough of my fabric 
These modern lesbian couples should look at the example provided by a traditional lesbian couple like Gertrude Stein and Alice B. Toklas. Everytime their relationship was going through a rough spot, they’d get together, bake up a pan of brownies, and by the time they were done eating them they’d have forgotten all about their argument.
weirddave, lesbians are only humans, too!
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Good one Dave…
Ultress? You do realize this is satire, right?
Now that’s funny!
You mean to tell me that I contributed to the downfall of society on Tuesday, when I married two lesbians?
Drat. You think you’re doing a good deed…
I sure as hell hope they at least continue to commit to following the traditional American way of breaking up a family, complete with custody battles, fighting over support, plenty o’ trips to court over minor matters, and using the children as pawns.
We’ve got traditions to uphold, damnit, and married lesbians had damned well better take note. It’d be just like two deviants like them to go off and do it amicably and with the emotional health of the kids forefront in their minds.
Let’s boycott Disney again!
Boycott Disney again? When did we stop?
I’ve always been a big fan of gay couples and think they should be encouraged. Not bacause I’m really liberal or progressive or anything, but because THEY AREN’T SUPPOSED TO BREED!
Now mind you this isn’t a genetics thing with me, it’s an overpopulation thing. I want more oxagen! I want a parking place at the grocery store on a Friday night! I don’t wanna’ wait for an internet connection!
Now gay folk are bringing children into the mix!? Arrgh!! (And David Crosby’s cocaine and hepititus laced seed at that!? Double AARGH!!!).
Jeepers. Can’t anybody take Gertude Stein and Alice B. Toklas as role models?
I don’t know about all that, but it seems that wannabes are ruining the fabric of the Lesbian Family.
Maybe that’s what broke them up? When the newest infant sprouted the weird [sorry dave!] moustache, Julie couldn’t stand it, and ran screaming out into the night. I have it on good authority the other kid is shaving already.
Sheesh!
First Anne and Ellen, now this!
HUmph!
They’re getting more immoral everyday-just like us damn heteros!
Lesbians…you can’t live with 'em and, um, I guess that’s it.
