Can you imagine how much the lesbian/feminists on that Marriage for all march would like a banner saying "A pair of fathers is better than a slutty/statterny/shitty mother"?
The men wouldn't dare.

Re. the problem that the use of donor sperm (and this has been around for a long time, in the context of donor sperm being used in a case where a couple desired children but the husband was infertile) creates the possibility that half-siblings may meet and marry each other.
Just as engaged couples in some countries in the 1940s and 1950s were required to be tested for syphilis before marriage (and in some countries, today, a test for HIV is probably prudent), it may be that engaged couples may have to have a dna test to see whether they are related. I would guess that half-siblings, with the same father, would turn up more DNA matches than people less closely related.

Two little questions.
When homosexuality was first studied seriously from an anthropological/biological perspective versus the strictly social/moral one, a number of interesting results popped out. Firstly, it is evident in all species, not only mammals but even birds and fish, 2-3% of the average population. In no species does it affect the alpha males, it was assumed this was one of nature's little tricks to preserve and improve the species. This second conclusion seems to have deliberately been suppressed in a propaganda campaign to make Goebels look like an amateur.
Even Islam, with the most retrograde of marriage laws accepts non-consumatiion as the grounds for annuling a marriage. What happens now? Do they call a proctologist as an expert witness? Do they argue as to who was to do what? Can they blame the failure of the marriage on flat batteries? A new ad battle for duracell and eveready?
