  1. Mammoliti makes me shake my head. So sex is okay if it’s being paid for, but not okay if it’s between two people of the same gender? What about if there’s money exchanged between two people of the same gender for sex? Would that be okay, but getting them getting married wouldn’t be?

    I think the nicest thing I can say about this is that I don’t think he’s thought these issues through.
