Ellen DeGeneres: I'm getting married now

**nycgirl** · May 20th, 2008, 12:13 AM

they make such a cute couple, congrats to them!

this California ruling is amazing, it's time for our society to start changing, marriage between consenting adults (regardless of whether they happen to be of the same or opposite sex) should be a basic right- I don't see how anyone could argue that. The main points I've heard against it are that "marriage is a sacred bond between a man and a woman"- really? It is? Because I thought any two village idiots could go to Vegas and get hitched..... paging Britney Spears. And I thought that we heterosexuals had a 50 percent divorce rate? The other argument is that it will open the doors to marriages between humans and pets- I'm not going to even argue against that, as it is too insulting and ridiculous to even take seriously.

I agree Portia is gorgeous, even way out of Ellen's league, and ever since she's had her own show Ellen has gotten painfully unfunnier with every passing moment. But she is a powerful, rich bitch in Hollywood, and I think that is the reason Portia is sticking with her. Ellen is her sugar mama and Portia is Ellen's beautiful arm candy...just like so many hetero relationships before them.

I dunno, Ellen's never been that funny IMO, but I always thought she has a sweet, kinda vulnerable energy that I just like. I doubt she's a horrible girlfriend, and they look happy together. So I wish them much luck! I can't believe this ruling got passed...but of course the forces of ignorance and meanness aren't through yet. Better hurry up with those nuptials...sigh.

Happy for them but t is a seriously unbalanced relationship in the looks department!

Crap-look at Cynthia Nixon's choice! We have to agree Portia has done better. Besides-has anyone else noticed the lack of fashion sense Portia has ALWAYS displayed???! I mean,her taste is not exactly what we would hope. Anyway,she goes to Ellen's show daily,with very little make-up and frankly they seem very much in love.
It does trouble me that both junked their past partners without a blink. I am thinking positive here-this may be that kind of love that never ends. Hope.

Don't get me wrong, I'm all for marriage (regardless of sex) and I hope it lasts forever - but then I'd love a shot at Portia, she's on my "LIST".

Cynthia's girlfriend is a fright, no doubt about that.

I was not impressed by the way these two got together. I think, though I might be mistaken, that Portia had already broken up with her previous partner. But this is exactly the reason why I don't see them getting married or staying together. And I think it will be Ellen who leaves first for someone else.

So what? What's the big deal about looks? Most of the "unattractive" guys I've dated were sweeter, sexier, smarter, and more romantic than the hot guys I dated.

Looks are overrated. Love is all that matters.

^^ So true, Lily. Cynthia's girlfriend is dang scary looking though.

I don't see them staying together either.
