“My own personal view is that people ought to have the right to enter into any kind of relationship they want to enter into.

“We live in a free society, and freedom means freedom for everybody. We shouldn't be able to choose and say, 'You get to live free and you don't.' That means people should be free to enter into any kind of relationship they want to enter into.

I think we ought to do everything we can to tolerate and accommodate whatever kind of relationships people want to enter into.”
