What is the point of a gay relationship?

So........a married hetro couple who discover that one or the other is infertile should divorce in favour of the fertile partner seeking another more fertile lover for the purposes of procreation?

Its called love. People, no matter what their gender preference, marry/form relationships for LOVE, not procreation. That is true no matter what your gender orientation is.....

Im trying really hard here not to call you an idiot......

ETA: Soooooo......what youre saying is that my husband should have left our daughter and I when I failed to carry further pregnancies to term and in fact became medically celibate??? Really??

Didnt the fact that we love one another and choose to support one another count for anything? What about when couples choose, as a couple, not to have children?

Not going to avoid it now, youre an idiot.

Hmmm,, this is a tricky question and I have to say with all due respect "double edged" lol.. But at the same time very simple and clear,, if you love some one.. Strait or lgtb, its just that, love,, sex comes with love, not so much live with sex,, but that I'm sure does happen also,, but its not really a question of a gay relationship having to be procreative, but weather or not they live each other, strait or lgtb people can love and be in a great meaningful long term relationship and be happy the rest of their lives,, the question should be why is anyone having sex just to have sex and care less about the other person simultaneously?, when it comes to a actual relationship sex is not sex,, its making love and showing it physically and emotionally by giving your significant other the physical and emotional pleasure,, ;)

This all coming from a mtf transgender bisexual.

In my personal experience up until recently sex wasn't a romantic thing at all and I was a complete slut, and especially since I do consider myself quite a bit of a hedonist, *that* was hedonistic ambition, sure. But I'm in a relationship with someone now and it still is romantic for us. Even though we're both just guys who are probably more inclined to make sex less of a special intimate thing, and even though many times we have sex our main purpose for doing it *is* for mutual pleasure, we're together for a reason. If we didn't care about each other we wouldn't text each other good morning and insist on having lunch and/or dinner together and talk all the time and hold hands. And we damn sure wouldn't share as many intimate details about ourselves we don't share with most people. We *are* in love as much as any other couple is in love, and that's the meaning and purpose of us being together. If it were just about sex, believe me, we wouldn't be putting this much effort into it, we'd be carrying on with our drifting promiscuity as we were before.

Actually I'd feel a whole lot more disrespected if someone only wanted to be with me to procreate with me.

I agree that all people should have respect for the human dignity of one another, that's just right, in my opinion. Regardless, love is love. No matter what gender, if one has the ability to love then it doesn't matter what or who that person is. They love, and they are loved. People spend far too much time sexualizing things. It's not always about lust, love is real. Love is love.

Because marriages are not all about procreation?

Same reason as a straight relationship.

Can you hear that sound?

It's your mother crying out of shame and embarrassment.
