It doesn't have any effect on your life. What do you care?! People try to talk about it like it's a social issue. Like when you see someone stand up on a talk show and say, "How am I supposed to explain to my children that two men are getting married?.. I dunno. It's your shitty kid. You fuckin' tell 'em. Why is that anyone else's problem? Two guys are in LOVE and they can't get married because you don't want to talk to your ugly child for five fuckin' minutes?. Louis C.K.
About This Quote

This quote from an interview with a talk show host is in response to a question about whether or not he opposes gay marriage. It is in this context that the host asks if the couple in the video should be allowed to marry. The interviewer’s main concern in asking this question is how to handle his own child when she asks, “So, when two guys get married, can I marry another guy?” It is unclear what exactly the interviewer was trying to convey in his response. He seems to be saying that he does not care about what other people want when it comes to marriage and children. He seems to be dismissing the whole idea of marriage itself as silly and irrelevant and that he and his child should just figure it out themselves.
