I am about 95% certain that Justices Anthony Kennedy, Ruth Ginsburg, Stephen Breyer, Sonia Sotomayor, and Elena Kagan are Not going to rule in favor of Proposition 8. However, if these five Justices do rule against Proposition 8 that will likely only make Same-sex Marriages legally recognize in California and not in the rest of the States that don't have Same-sex Marriages legally recognize.

Ho ho ho. I meant men in the sense where gender doesn't matter. If you look up man in the dictionary, definitions 2, 3, and 4 don't confine man to solely males.

It's certainly possible that those five will strike down Proposition 8. It'll be interesting to see what happens.

You must be joking.

Sure, you can do that if you are talking in general terms about humankind as a species. But this was a reference to a small group of identifiable men and women.

I can guarantee you that my editors would never let me get away with using "men" as a plural noun to describe a specific group that includes both men and women, nor would I try. They might even start to wonder about my credentials, perhaps concluding that I received my degree from BYU. ;^)

No you didn't. All you did was make an irrelevant comment about allowing 10,000 blacks into a theater to small to hold them. I'm not talking about making it legal for a man to marry 10,000 wives! You never said why it should be illegal for a group of three people to get married. Why shouldn't it be legal for a group of three to get married?


Yes, I did explain it.

Not to mention Tom Riddle experimenting with dark magic while he was at Hogwarts. Look at the serious consequences that came from that!
