Matrimony


Next week Linda and I will be attending a wedding of a high school classmate of mine.  (Class of “60, Palmerton High School.)  She must be close to my age--70.  Judging from the picture she sent us, her fiance is about the same age.  She’s a widow, he’s a widower.  They don’t plan to have children.

We are looking forward to the wedding and the reception, although I don’t think their marriage will affect us in any material way.  If my classmate was marrying another woman, that wouldn’t affect us either.  What is the big deal about marriage equality?  Why is this even a problem?  I don’t get it.
