Top marks for not trying

"…it’s because of the biggest actual complaint people have about gay marriage, which is: it’s unnatural. ‘It doesn’t feel right to me.’ And maybe to you it doesn’t seem right because we build our world, because we build the rules of the world that we live in, that’s how we understand this place. And I think to a lot of people it feels like this is a big, messy, grey world and at least there are some sharp distinctions, like the distinctions between genders and sexual orientation and those are just lines that should always be hard lines. But saying that that simplicity is natural is just idiotic because the most natural thing in the world is complexity, and gender and sexual orientation are proven over and over again to not be firm lines. The whole world is grey and if you just appreciate that, if you understand and appreciate that, then it’s beautiful. But if you try and spend your whole life fighting against it, if you’re going to be bitter about the world being more complicated than it is, then you’re gonna make other people’s lives less awesome."
