Yes,'piqued' is exactly the right word, had a complete blank there. I'm really quite embarassed by that memory lapse.
Your opinion of gay marriage is something I would like to discuss with you at some stage. Perhaps in a different posting.
I'm interested in understanding the basis of some of the arguments against, for example how exactly does the introduction of gay marriage damage the institution for hetrosexual couples? Do the same objections apply to Civil partnerships as to Marriages?
I'm not trolling, I have a genuine interest in understand the objections. I've heard a lot of rhetoric in the press (from both sides) but very little reasoned argument.
