Stphanie Coontz, who wrote the book, "Marriage, a History," says about "traditional" marriage: "If precedent is our guide, shouldn't we legalize polygamy, bring back arranged marriages and child brides, and decriminalize wife beating?" <BR/><BR/><BR/>As the quote on my tea bag said this morning, "The freethinking of one age, is the common sense of the next."<BR/><BR/>It's coming, it's just a matter of when.Me, You, or Elliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13159195620327366257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4146073139129271180.post-56545950582475820402008-11-06T01:34:00.000-08:002008-11-06T01:34:00.000-08:00I actually cried when I heard he won.

I'm from Utah. Those bumper stickers are everywhere. Also? WTF is "traditional" marriage anyway? Who gets to define it? If we go way back to feudalism, then it's arranged. Who decides when the break-off point for traditional is?
