Attention: Straight blokes.
Gay men don’t care if you refuse to support gay marriage. Because if you don’t let them marry – they’ll just steal your girlfriends instead.
It’s not like it would be hard. Your girlfriends like them better anyway. After all – they can cook (quiche no less!), they can dance (like actually dance, not just shuffle their feet), they work out (far more than you do), they love seeing Broadway musicals and they can easily gossip about how Cassandra’s being a total bitch and WHY DID SHE SAY THAT MEAN THING ANYWAY?
Watch this sketch from College Humour and then send it to every male you know that doesn’t support gay marriage. It’s very likely to make them change their minds:

I laughed at this.
I get where some of the ‘negative Nellies’ below are coming from, but it still makes me smile just looking at their cheesy grins.

Have you really thought this through?
What would happen if there was a spider? You and your new bestie gay husband could be holed up on the kitchen table for weeks before a straight man showed up to rid the house of the evil invader.
Lets face it the straight population who have been recently dumped in favour of well groomed, quiche loving, disco dancing, poodle walkers are not likely to come running to your aid!
What about if you need something heavy moved?All those hours they have spent at the gym body sculpting haven’t really helped their strength.Also all those hours in the gym have left you looking a bit shabby next to him too! And lets face it they are not like straight guys they WILL tell you when you have put on a few extra pounds, they Will tell you that your butt looks big in those new jeans and we all know how much women love that.
Then there is the car,lawns ,painting, light bulb changing etc etc etc and SEX! no matter what they say in the video up there they are not going to get funky in the sack with you!
And here is something I am sure all you ladies will be grateful for NO MORE SHOPPING your personal shopper/interior decorator husbands will have all that covered and lets face it they have better taste than you too.
I just want to add that I am a straight male who can’t cook very well I do not exercise as much as I should and would rather watch the footy than go dancing.I do however support gay marriage.

I hated this clip. it pulls out every cliche in the book and does not help sell any point. Maybe it’s made as just a bit of fun, but i find it offensive towards gay people (and I’m not gay). I know lots of gay people who possess none of the qualities that apparently make up a gay guy (bitchiness, likes threesomes, works out at the gym, good cook, etc)…it’s exactly the type of stereotyping that makes some people feel that have to fit into a certain image of being ‘gay,’ rather than letting gay people be themselves. I can’t stand the ‘gay act.’
Let gays get married I say, to put a stop to the stereotyping and let gay people just be normal people with all different individual characteristics.

I’m gay, and whilst I can cook…i can’t dance to save my life, I hate musicals, I listen to metal and am heavily tattooed and alternative. I hate bitchyness and dont pop pills at clubs or care about what’s in this season….(okay thats a bit of a lie, as a fashion photographer I NEED to know what visual styles are trending)….
I dunno, stuff like this – whilst amusing – seem to alienate those of us that arent pink fluffy tinkerbells.
as for gay marriage…we all know it will happen eventually. It’s just the waiting that sucks.
*shrug*

I could never understand any of my friend’s aversions to homosexuals. As far as I was concerned more gay men helped supply and demand for me.
More lovely ladies for cheeky ol’ me, less competition.

I think the humor in this- that people appear to be missing below- is in poking fun AT the stereotypes not endorsing them. Stereotypes about women, gay men, straight men, heterosexual relationships. Of course all gay men can’t cook/dance etc. just as all hetro men aren’t terrible dressers and just as all women don’t wan’t motherf******* quiche for breakfast. The funny bit is bundling all of the stereotypes into an absurd argument.
Or do people seriously think that gay guys are going to STEAL ALL THE GIRLFRIENDS!!!!!?

Guys, I’m for gay marriage.
BUT, boyfriend…
(picture me doing the jazz hand, finger clicky think here like I’m totally ghetto for emphasis and pizzazz)
…you di’n't just come at me with oxford shirts as good dress sense, did you?
Puhleese, the early 90s are on the line and they want their shirt back.
Uh huh, that’s right. Get away from me with that chambray.

It is very very funny to reel out countless negative stereotypes of straight men isnt it. Such a hoot. It is refreshing, given that this is the only group on earth people are still allowed to take the piss out of. Classic.

Looks like the stereotypes are being dealt out pretty even handedly to me.
I usually get a giggle out of the College Humor guys but this one was a bit lame for me…

Umm, no you won’t steal our girlfriends.
I’m not sure who you’re insulting more, straight guys for being boofheads (trust me, not every straight guy is a boofhead), or gay guys by perpetuating a stereotype.
Gay guys can dance, but so can straight guys, I spent 4 years learning ballet. I did that because there were lots of girls, and gave up because they all thought I was gay and I was wasting my time, even 30 years later I occasionally run into one of the girls from ballet and without exception they comment that they all thought I was gay. Mind you, I also played Aussie Rules, and I can’t see how a sport can define one’s sexuality. (Sorry, digressing)
Anyway, I can dance, I can cook, mainly because my single mother of the 70′s made sure I could cook so I didn’t have to be waited on by a wife, apart from that I am just as capable of burning chops as any chick.
So I can dance, I can cook, and I do work out, I have to admit you’ve got me there, but having kids precludes me from having the multitudes of hours of free time that kid free gay guys have. (yes, I know that some gay guys have kids, but really!)
What are we up to? Cook, Dance, work out, so musical? yeah, they are great, I’ve seen musicals my gay mates don’t go to. What is your point?
Which leads us to the last point, I really don’t care what Cassandra is doing, I’ll listen and nod at appropriate times, but my girl understands that I’m probably not really listening but I’m still enabling her to get stuff off her chest.
So, I’m not going into the obvious, but what is it that makes you able to pinch our girlfriends?
As for gay marriage, straight blokes don’t care one way or another, which means if they were asked to vote in a referendum they’d probably vote yes jand tell you it’s so you’ll stop complaining, but all the while the real reason is that it’s the right thing to do.
So please, gay guys, don’t threaten to steal our girlfriends, there’s no need, we’ll support what is right, and it’s not a left v right thing, it’s a right v wrong thing.
Besides, if you threaten to pinch our girlfriends you might just get them. What the hell are you going to do with them then?
Hang on a sec, what’s with the “pinch your girlfriends” language? Are you implying that “our” girlfriends are chattels of some kind? That’s very naughty of you.
