“You are Dead, the Square is Dead”: The 1989 Chinese Pro-Democracy

You are dead, the Square is dead.

美国最高法院作出了同性婚姻合法的司法判决，同时也点燃了一场大讨论，同性婚姻到
底该不该上升到法律定义去确立它的合法地位？
那位反对的首席大法官，从婚姻的历史定义，阐述了为何同性婚姻“不合法”。 但是
可笑的是，如果婚姻在当今社会，真的要遵从它的历史定义的话，请大法官先生先恢复
“通奸罪”作为它必须的“有益补充”， 要知道，父母通奸对于儿童心理上的伤害远
远大于单亲，如果异性恋婚外情可以大行其道而不受惩罚，比如加州就奉行“无过错离
