Meh, whatever. People often want to justify excluding gays from the institution of marriage because of a need to protect its "sanctity". My question is "What sanctity?"
Most of us here agree that modern marriage is a broken institution without much integrity left in it. The institution has already been devalued by legions of people without much in the way of decent morals (liars, adulterers, etc) or commitment (no-fault divorce for frivolous reasons i.e. "Eat Pray Love") taking part in it. If gays want in on that, then who cares? I don't.
The irony is that gays getting married might just save marriage.
Gays will now be afflicted by the abomination that is U.S. marriage/divorce laws--perhaps, as a group that elicits sympathy much more so than heterosexual men, they will be able to get this stuff changed.
