I think I maybe probably got one of the pop culture questions wrong.
They asked him "what controversial sex book do lots of women have in their nightstand drawer"... and my first thought was "Our Bodies Our Selves."
Which probably isn't even controversial anymore.
And then I remembered there's a best-selling recent novel getting blogged about, "50 Shades of Gray" or something like that, it started out as "Twilight" fanfic and then the author realized she'd have something salable if she changed the names and a few details and now she's got her own movie deal....
(Obama's answer was pretty good though: "I have no idea. I'll have to ask Michelle when I get home.")

Dominionism: the belief tht America's priveleged and exceptional standing with God arises from the fact that our laws reflect (their bigoted and reactionary views of) God's Divine Laws.
The second we start allowing things like gay marriage, abortion, gambling, prostitution, drug use, gun control, progressive taxation, etc, we are "shaking our fist at God" and inviting him to smite us.
That is why they are so goddamn tight-assed about this whole issue.

Well, if just anybody can engage in the very special religious ceremony of marriage then marriage is no longer special, and through guilt by association, neither are the couples claiming marriage as their crowning achievement.

maggiekarp2 asked: Yo, why do people say it's hard to explain gay marriage to kids? I didn't realize it was actually illegal until High School because of Bugs Bunny cartoons.I think it’s that shit where homophobes are inexplicably fascinated with gay sex, so they think explaining that two men or two women are in love necessarily involves a bunch of explicit sexual description. Guess what, fuckheads, we’re able to explain straight marriage without having to explain how blowjobs work, or whatever, it’s really not that hard.
