    I guess if you think the opinions of every culture and time everywhere are no to do with ours... but we could say that the opinions of Americans are vastly different than those of Asian cultures (of which has quite a bit to do with this discussion). My point speaks more to the fact that what you believe is really entirely in the eye of the beholder so pretending that an opinion is better because of the country or culture you are in is better, is a little short-sided.

    I have friends that believe in "poly-amory", which most of America would believe is terrible along with plural marriage, but do I say that it means my views are better than theirs? Not at all/

    Even religion believed in multiple wives - it only changed recently lol, they are "old souls" ^_^.


    What I want to know is are there people (on either side) that would disprove of a re-imagined wedding - one that follows FFXIV lore and gods, and perhaps doesn't even have the same name. Or is it just the aspect that there exists "those not like me".

    That's my point man. People allowed "child" sexual relationships until recently. in the 20-30's lots of people were still married at 12-14. Say that now and everyone freaks out. "Right" and "Wrong" is such a fluid concept anyways that it makes the whole arguement moot. In the end, they should just do what will make the most money.

    Ah I get you , and I agree - the most horrible things only happened recently and where "ok" lol

    I honestly think that there wont be a big money difference either way. But I've never experience such a LGBT presence then in this game, so maybe... it is in there interest to support the community (which I would prefer they do also).
