Gays do not have a constitutional right to marry anywhere (in the US). What we hope we do have is the same right as any other member of an unpopular class of folks not to be singled out and discriminated against by their government unless it be rationally related to the furtherance of a legitimate and compelling state interest. Whew...that's a mouthful, isn't it. Roughly translated that means that courts are supposed to cast a hairy eyeball on laws that carve out a subset of the population and treat them worse than the rest of of us. It's not that all discriminatory laws are unconstitutional, just that such laws have to serve a legit state purpose in a rational way. That's called 'judicial scrutiny'. Now just how hairy an eyeball a judge is supposed to cast depends on several factors: 1) How unpopular is the class and how well is it able to defend itself in the normal rough and tumble of legislative sausage making. For instance: rich folks are normally deemed able to adequately defend themselves from the howling mob, so clearly discriminatory tax laws go unchallenged. 2) How legitimate is the state purpose and how nasty is the penalty? All states have a minimum age requirement to get a drivers license. Legitimate purpose: safe highways; penalty: not being able to drive a car. 3) How rationally related is the penalty to the purpose of the law? True that most (but not all) 12 year olds make terrible drivers but so do a lot 20 year olds, so... Well, it's a balancing act, it's not an unreasonable effort as part of a comprehensive scheme to make the roads safer, so let it go. Remember that as recently as 25 years ago suppression of buggery was a legitimate public purpose and prison time was deemed a rational way to further that goal. Times change.

And away we go. Supreme Court Sets Date For Same-Sex Marriage Arguments Audio of the proceedings will be made available the same day AP (WASHINGTON) — The Supreme Court will hear arguments over same-sex marriage on April 28 and make audio of the proceedings available later that day. The gay marriage cases mark the only time this term that the court has agreed to the quick release of audio recordings. But the court is continuing its ban on providing video of its sessions or even live-streamed audio. The arguments on gay marriage have been allotted two-and-a-half hours on the final Tuesday in April. Audio and the transcript of the proceedings should be available on the court’s website by 2 p.m. EDT, the court said Thursday in a statement. The justices denied a request from The Associated Press and other media outlets for the quick release of audio of the argument Wednesday over the tax subsidies that are part of the health care overhaul. That audio will be made available on Friday. The gay marriage cases come from the Cincinnati-based 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals, so far the only federal appellate court that has upheld state bans on same-sex marriages since the justices’ 2013 ruling striking down part of the federal anti-gay marriage law. Lawyers on both sides will get 90 minutes to argue whether gay and lesbian couples have a constitutional right to marry everywhere in the U.S. Another hour will be devoted to the question of whether states must recognize same-sex unions performed elsewhere. A decision is expected before July. http://time.com/3733943/supreme-court-sex-marriage/

I know this may not be intended for me but I'll answer anyway. YES Cost of living great. Tons of things to go. Gay totally accepted. Medical Care amazing. Very inexpensive.

Taking everything into consideration, would you consider it as a place to retire, or do you think that it is a viable place to retire?

Hmm...but it takes 5 to make a handful. Probably won't appeal to everyone.

Better that than what hurts the morning after you eat too much vindaloo.

OK, now I dont feel that Bad about how I am aging !

Always knew you kept a "corn-holer" in your stable.

Thanks for the pick-me-up. I've been just a bit under the weather the last couple of days, but I'm just headed out the door to see what's going on tonight. I wasn't sure if I would bring someone back, but now, I would love to see a butt like that running around the apartment. Let's see who the lucky boy will be.

Could not resist posting a couple of photos of a boy on Hornet in Thailand. Says he likes mature men , no money involved. ( yes that does happen in Thailand) He posted Face photos which match up very nice with the other photos but I don't feel comfortable stealing and posting them. Skinny Twinks to Muscle Boys. There really is no place like it. Massage Parlors, GoGo Bars, Live Sex shows , tons of internet possibilities all for the equivalent of $30-$50 for an hour and $50-$75 for all night. Great Hotels at 1/3 the price in NYC or Rio and fabulous restaurants of all cuisines for reasonable prices. Yes the plane trip is long, but I don't know anybody who made the trip who could not wait to go back.

Let me chime in here. It has been awhile since I have been to Brazil but Thailand I have spent many months in over the last 10 years. For me the two places are completely different. Boys in Brazil are definitely bigger and more muscular . Amazing how many of them go home to wife and children. This is rare in Thailand. Brazil operates primarily with Saunas which I do not favor , probably why I spend most of my time in Thailand. No Comparison in expenses. Great Hotels available all over Thailand for 60% less or more then Brazil. Far better choice of international restaurants in Bangkok at a fraction of the cost of Brazil. Only thing comparable would be boys prices not so different. If you like 3 ways and orgies then Brazil is the place for you , much harder to make happen in Thailand. Brazil easier for a 1 week trip because of time in airplanes but fares not that much different if you have the ability to stay longer in Thailand. Unlike Brazil, it will be rare if you are questioned bringing a boy to your room in Bangkok or anywhere in Thailand. If you use internet boys much easier to find in Thailand. Thailand full of Bars with boys of all types and for the price of a drink you can take your time choosing for the evening. Planetime you paid way to much for Viagra . The Indian Generic or Thai Generic is identical for 400 baht (at the most) for 4 pills. Just like USA pharmacies will always give you generics if available , once the original loses its protection.
