Why do some straight people still object to gay marriage? Gay guys decided they have had enough, so they have issued the following ultimatum: ‘Either you support our cause or we’ll marry your girlfriends!’ They then go on to explain how this is in fact possible and the thousand and one reasons girls would pick them over their straight boyfriends any day!
Quite simply the perfect introduction to any discussion of this very topical issue. [Teacher discretion is advised]. Level: B2 — C1 Topic: Homosexuality / Gay marriage / Civil rights / Minority rights.

SCRIPT
[LG: Living room guy / BG: Bedroom guy / KG: Kitchen guy / PG: Pool guy / GG: Gym guy]
LG: Over time, Americans are becoming more comfortable with the idea of gay marriage, seeing it as both a moral and civil rights issue.
BD: But there are still many out there who are fighting against the cause.
PG: And as gay men ourselves, we would just like to say to those people:
KG: Fine. Keep marriage between a man and a woman. And in response, we will marry your girlfriends.
PG: We’ll marry your girlfriends.
GG: What, you don’t think we could?
LG: We’d be the best husbands EVER.
BG: Have you seen us? We are ripped.
KG: All of us are ripped. It doesn’t seem statistically possible, and yet it’s true.
GG: Because we love going to the gym. You know who else loves going to the gym? Your girlfriend.
PG: We will go to the gym with her, and then after we’ll get Pinkberry as a reward. That sounds like a great time to us.
LG: Not to mention we dress better than you. While you were spilling Manwich on your cargo shorts, we were inspecting our Oxford shirts for the craftsmanship of their gauntlet buttons.
BG: What do you make your girlfriend for breakfast, burnt scrambled eggs? We will make her a quiche.
KG: With a side of hummus we made from scratch.
LG: Do you even know the difference between hummus and baba ganoush?
KG: You’re a joke.
GG: And don’t even get us started on dates.
LG: You don’t want to go dancing? We teach a dance class.
PG: Urban Tango.
BG: You’re not on the list for that art gallery opening?
PG: Hold on, we’ll BBM the owner. Maurice.
KG: Not in the mood to go to that Broadway show? We are.
PG: We’re IN it.
GG: Yes we would like to go to that 80s themed costume party, and no, we weren’t just checking out that other girl.
LG: Obviously.
BG: Ew.
KG: We could listen to your girlfriend for hours, just reassuring her that she’s not the crazy one, and that she’s totally, 100% right.
BG: Cassandra is being a bitch.
LG: Also, her dad loves us.
GG: That’s because he’s not threatened by us. In fact, we’re playing squash with him right now. Well PLAYED, Mr. Bennett!
KG: Now you’re probably thinking, sex…
LG: …that’s where you have us beat.
BG: EEEHHHHH!
GG: We already know how she likes to be kissed.
LG: She thinks it’s funny to make out with us when she’s drunk.
PG: And you know all those sweet spots, preferences and fantasies that she’s too embarrassed to tell you or thinks you should innately know?
LG: Yeah, she’s told us. We could play her like an upright bass.
KG: And the kind of threesome she wants? Oh, we’re cool with that.
LG: As if all this isn’t enough, we’re the shoulder your girlfriend cries on when she complains about … you.
KG: We know literally all of your weaknesses.
PG: You are Death Stars, and we are an army of fabulous Luke Skywalkers.
LG: So remember: we’re doing you a huge solid by being more attracted to each other than to your girlfriends.
BG: But if you stay close-minded about this, we will take one for the team and marry the crap out of them.
KG: So don’t make us marry your girlfriends.
LG: Support gay marriage.
