Defenders of the law say such a law is necessary because it must also protect gay couples. Opponents oppose such a law as an attack on a traditional family and ask whether homosexuals will be allowed to marry and raise children, the press release said.
This Thursday night on the LNK TV show “Kissing. Rūta ”will not be without emotions, as the study will talk about defenders of the traditional family and people who do not hide homosexuality. The latter say they are tired and live in fear of society’s resistance.
“We have been living in homophobic quarantine for 30 years, when we are forced not to make it public, to hide, to live behind closed doors. Finally, the rest of society, in the wake of the pandemic, realized what it meant to live between the four borders and not communicate with those around them. We have lived like this for decades, ”says Vladmiras Simonko, director of the Lithuanian Gay League.
He doubts if he will still be able to have the same rights in his life, as those that heterosexual couples have: “We do not destroy traditional families, we do not take anything from them, we only ask them to share what they have. Heterosexual couples can get married, ask for loans, get information about their other half in medical facilities. We want the same “.
When asked by the host of the Rūta Mikelkevičiūtė program, like traditional families, homosexuals would like to raise children, V. Simonko replied, “And why not?”
“I do not believe that homosexual couples are a family, because a family is the union of a man and a woman, children are born in a family,” says Laurynas Kasčiūnas, a member of the Seimas.
He and his colleagues are proposing an alternative to the new partnership law that would legalize gay couples the ability to handle legal matters, obtain loans, settle estates and other practical matters. It would be a coexistence agreement, but without claiming family status.
However, the representatives of the homosexual orientation who participated in the program assure that they are not satisfied with such an offer.
“What a member of the Seimas said does not satisfy me. It humiliates me. I will not take advantage of your offer and will look for another country where I can marry,” resents V. Simonko.
At the time, Seimas member L. Kasčiūnas believed that such homosexual resistance was part of the plan.
“I believe that the introduction of the law of couples is not a solution to the practical problems of homosexual couples, but an attempt to circumvent the institution of marriage and form a family through a couple and thus begin to have adoption claims. Then tell the public that your plan for Lithuania is to be equal with the family and have the right to adoption through the association law, ”says a member of the Seimas.
Another guest on the program, Aurelija Paunksnė Ignotė, who does not hide homosexuality, has lived with her partner for three years and her name is his wife.
“I want to support those men and women who want to adopt or have children. And the funniest thing is that they already have them. Our anger at this is absurd because we are 50 years behind. I’m sorry, homosexual couples have been raising children for a long time, not one or two, ”Aurelia surprised the guests at the show.
In your environment, you have more than one homosexual person who is raising children from previous heterosexual relationships.
But what surprised me the most was the story of Mindaugas Grudzinsko-Gocht, a gay man living in Germany. Eight years ago, a Lithuanian married a German businessman under the company law in force in Germany.
“I needed marriage to feel safe, to have the same rights and guarantees as traditional couples,” says Mindaugas.
However, recently the marriage to the German businessman fell apart and if the partnership had not been officially legalized, the Lithuanian would have been left with nothing.
“My husband has to pay me 2,500 euros of maintenance every month. I also demanded 30 thousand. Compensation in euros, because I was a housewife my entire marriage, I donated my youth to him. In Germany, those laws and I can get what I think I it belongs, ”Mindaugas explains about his situation.
A heated discussion about the possibility of homosexuals marrying and forming a family and why opponents say it can ruin our society, already this Thursday night, at 8 pm, on the LNK television program “Kissing. Route “.
