SSM Plebiscite

[PaulP]

I reckon it would be too.

What i'm saying is IF no-voters are voting no because of their opinion on the nomenclature, then thats about as solid of an argument as i've heard.
I don't agree, but i can accept that as a reason for their vote.

As opposed to...
Voting no because its a slippery slope to incest, beastiality and worse. - Sorry, bollocks.
Voting no because it would piss off the church - Gay people don't have to get married in a church, so its a non-issue. Religion is supposed to be 'accepting' of people.
Voting no because Tony Abott said so - Purlease.  :

Fair enough.

I reckon the Abbott household must be a jumping little joint at family get togethers. His sister is gay, his daughter did an ad campaign supporting the yes vote. And with Tone the pugilist around, sparks will fly sooner or later.

The episode of Gruen that just aired talked about the ssm issue. They spoke very favorably about the AFL and how they handled the issue.
