And one for miracling up one in a woman beyond her childbearing years, but that one is repeatable.

Yeah, but her dad died at age 205, so they were clearly related to Aragorn.

Always love the “everyone will go gay” argument. Tells you all about the person making it.

So really…you’re a closeted gay terrified of being gay, who thinks everyone else is gay too? And you think the only reason people have heterosexual sex, marriage and children is because society won’t allow gay marriage?

Of course, for certain values of Right Wing Homophobe, this makes total sense.

Just for the record, I don’t care what the Gumment says. I’ll feed my cat and hold doors open for her, but I’m NOT gonna marry the beast.
