Thank you for adding this rule!! I've seen signatures like this tons of times and it's very annoying because it can be insulting

    If someone dosent support homosexuality you can no longer write that you don't for whatever reason in your signature?
    Honestly, thats a matter of opinion and I don't see why we cant, as long as your not rude about it.
    If supporting homosexuality still remains allowed in signatures then why isn't the other opinion?
    They are both opinions of two groups, I don't see why it cant be stated as something thats actually happening in this world.

I had a similar inquiry that was answered previously. You CAN state that you're pro-traditional marriage, but you CANNOT say that you're anti-homosexual marriage - just like you CAN say you're pro-homosexual marriage, but you CANNOT say you're anti-heterosexual marriage. Basically, you can still state your opinion, but just in a different way than you usually would. :)

Actually, you'd want to sat pro-christen rules for marriage.

Traditional is a loose term, especially considering the fact you got plenty of cultures that had homosexual marriages traditional.

According to Merriam Webster, Traditional Marriage means, "1. Anthropology. the primary established form of marriage recognized in a given country or religious or social group at a given time: 'In that culture, traditional marriage requires the families of the future bride and groom to engage in ritual visits and exchange gifts.' 2. Marriage between one man and one woman." Seeing that the second definition according to Merriam Webster clearly states that the term can mean marriage between one man and one woman, it is the term that Aqua.Rose would be best to use, in my opinion. :)

As stated before, I asked the mods questions using this term, and they were perfectly a-okay with it.

    I think what Lady Sif is pointing out here is that it is probably best if you do classify specifically what you mean, in this case you would be Pro-Traditional Christian (Catholic?) Marriage, which from how I see it from your pov is Male/Female. It's evident here that your pov of traditional marriage is one that needs a bit more of being specific towards it, so no miss-interpretation is seen and negativity happens because of that; and with traditional marriage as a label, there are other various versions on it as well from all kinds of other cultures.

    An example of this is Native American religious culture. It is tradition for them to support their traditional marriage, in the same way you are, however their marriage celebration and laws / rules are preformed the same way no matter who are being married, whether that would be male/male, female/female, male/female etc, where Christianity; from your general belief which would be Catholic or something (Apologies, I am not well informed in general Christian labels,) isn't sharing that pov to the point where it is, again from your pov; banned.

    (Other Examples include Wiccan, Conservative and Liberal Jews, Specific parts of Christianity such as Unitarian Universalists and Unitarians, Metropolitan Community Church, United Church of Christ, Liberal Buddhists, Liberal Hindus etc.)

    Note: This is more being said so things and other things don't happen and miss-interpretations don't happen. They tend to, end negatively unfortunately for all involved.

    Edit: And of course, this remains as a suggestion, not a thing you must do, but it will most likely work favorably for you if you do say this, to save general confusion and such. :)
