    I’m so tired of right wingers in Poland. They will always repeat the same stupid argument that because in our language word “rodzina” (family) contains the core “rodzić” (to give birth), and therefore it’s an institution for reproduction, so gay couples are not families. Words ethology makes more sense than anything else right

      So people who can’t reproduce shouldn’t be able to get married either, hysterecomies and vasectomies invalidate your marriage and preclude future marriage. Women have to get a divorce and can’t remarry once they’ve gone through menopause. In fact, men can’t give birth at all, so only women should be able to get married. Makes sense to me!

      Etymology, slogans, rhymes or catchy acronyms give our brains the illusion of hearing something that makes sense. Repeating them a million times drills them in your neural pathways. Plus they are easy to scream loud enough to drown any attempt at intelligent conversation.

      That’s right-hand populist communication in a nutshell.

        Right away it reminds me of justification for the double standards on having sex with a lot of people man vs woman. When you’re man, you have the key that opens a lot of gates, while if you’re woman you have the gate that can be opened with multiple keys.
