Her points are as valid as yours. You're just triggered because you're a reactionary snowflake who can't handle freedom of choice.

I’m not remotely triggered. I’m giving my opinion, not getting upset. I actually have no issue with civil partnerships.
-
Not triggered but feel the need to refute someone's opinions point by point? Ok.

I’m not sure you understand the concept of debate

I'm not sure you understand the term 'triggered'.

Why do you need to point out that I am an academic? Personally, I think wedding ceremonies can be pretty sexist. I'm all for all people having access to civil partnerships - and since this neither affects me or you - let people do what suits them. Equality is a nice thing.

Because I’d expect more accurate analysis from an academic.

it's twitter - one does one's best. Well, if I ever get around to writing a paper on why I think wedding ceremonies can be sexist - then I will remember to credit this exchange.

Got married in a Registry Office, mutual vows, atheists, saved every penny for a deposit on first home ...both worked very hard, 15% mortgage, 25% inflation, 3-day week, Cold War - beautiful loving family... 50 years later

Perhaps someone can explain what is the difference between a registrar office civil wedding and a registrar office civil partnership? Can't help thinking the couple in question are being rather precious..
-
All that aside, it makes sense that if one group can have a civil partnership, why can't another? Why not?
-
Don't recognise the issues with marriage they describe, though. We had a non-religious wedding. You can pick your vows, and pretty much what everyone else says. Bridesmaids aren't mandatory.

Defined as "A teacher or scholar in a university or other institute of higher education". Makes one wonder what's going on in the world of education.

A minority wants to anesthetize the democratic society to colorless, plastic moralistic rulings. All in the guise of Freedom.

Sounds very like the EU that!

Well — that’s the educational elite for you. They think that just because they said it is right even though they are plainly wrong. Solipsism. Julia gets it until Trump mentioned then her own disease TDS kicks in. Compartmentalising virus pops up.
