tungod ba kay ang ilang gipangayo is a force-to-be-reckoned threat to the long-formed and long-guarded core of the society and culture? sometimes changes in the flow of things can open our eyes to the endless possibilities that would have been forever missed otherwise.
yes, there are certain mandates and orders from the society and its culture that same sex marriage would have trouble getting into, like the procreation and the very concept of marriage. even these are not an absolute hindrance to the argument of pro-same-sex marriage. in fact, they get the nod in other countries.
it is definitely right that human respect is only what it needs to bring this kind of union into position just as hetero unions have had. but institution of marriage as i've understood does not arise on social acceptance alone, which includes respecting their individuality, rights and decision; also, it stems from the natural order of creation - male & female; penis & vagina; semen & sperm; day & night; life & death. this is the natural law from which the "right"-ness of hetero-marriage has been founded. hence, our society may accept and allow SSM, but that doesn't follow that it makes it RIGHT by the dictate of our nature. suffice it to say why our religious brothers and sisters are adamant against the SSM insistence to call their union "marriage" because they don't look at it RIGHT, precisely because it's against Nature, and they ascribe Nature as part of God's plan, His Creation. This is where faith comes into play. (ug tingali moingon na pod si MBD ani, F***B*** that faith!! hahahaha)
sa ako lang, ako lang ni, the loophole of the argument to respect their rights and privileges in our society is that it is based mainly on political and humanistic intervention and influence, which they have obtained in other societies but not yet in the Philippines. It's a strong argument but not strong enough, which leads me to say KUNG mao man galing na nga respetohay man kaha ta, ngano mang di man ko tugotan mangasawa sa akong silingan nga dalaga na pero 10 anyos pa. o nga makapangasawa sa akong TUKOY nga mas bootan pa sa ubang TAWO nga asawa. ingnon man kaha ko nila nga "nabuang na ka", "gibaliw man tingali ka", pero di ba ingon man tingali nang gugma? hahahha.
