Happily ever after...

So last week it was the royal wedding of Willy and Kate. I must say I do like the idea that the future king will be called Willy! But anyway the coverage of the wedding was crazy... 24 hour news broadcasts, the guessing of what people would wear, the possible food and flower on the day... the media really had a field day, but it was a lot of fun.

The day of the wedding I attended a party to watch the wedding and it was fun. We all dressed up, drank champers, watched the guests arrive and commented on the rather unfortunate hats of Beatrice and Eugene. What a huge circus... But it did make me wonder when will gay marriage be allowed and why am I not allowed to get married?? Well apart from the fact I don't have a boyfriend I would like to have the choice to get married. So watching this circus on TV I decided that a gay wedding would be similar to the royal wedding... a room full of queens and princesses except much better style and a little more sparkles!

Will gay marriage will every be allowed? I don't understand  why there is such opposition to allowing gay marriage. What will happen if gays and lesbians get married? The whole world as we know it isn't going to fall apart. If anything more money will be made from the lavish weddings on the similar scale as the royal wedding.

But what really annoyed me in recent weeks was the PM who came out to declare that she believed in what the Bible stated that marriage should only be between a man and a woman. For someone who publicly declared herself as an atheist why is she all of a sudden believing in the Bible? Has she suddenly changed her mind or trying to keep voters happy? Ahhh whatever I am not one to talk about politics but this did annoy me! My last comment on the PMs statement is if I cannot marry my gay boyfriend then our PM shouldn't be allowed to marry her gay boyfriend!

So back to the royal wedding... I do have to say my gaydar almost exploded a couple of times with appearances of certain individuals. Once when a brother was giving a speech and I did have to smile as during his speech I happened to google his sexuality and it was the second most searched thing on google.

The other time my gaydar went off was after the ceremony when a television network was interviewing the guests and they happened to interview an individual who firstly was wearing a little too much bronzer but he happened to gush about what people were wearing and how it was a lovely occasion and the wedding dress was stunning... I don't have a problem with gay or straight people but I do have a little bit of a problem with people who are obviously gay but pretend to be straight... come out already we are not going to bite... much!

I guess as I get older I am becoming a little more critical about these things that annoy me and a little more vocal about equality... great I am becoming a cranky old man. But one day I do hope that we all can live happily ever after... gay or straight!
