A matrimonial union between two people of the same sex. Not a mockery of marriage because it implies a loving relationship between — and listen to these words closely — TWO. CONSENTING. ADULTS. If you honestly think that the next step is going to be bigamy, beastiality, or pedophilia, then you're really off your rocker because none of these things involve all three of those three words. Maybe you can make a case for incest, but that's more often practiced in the Bible Belt between straight people, anyway.
Ironically, the American state with the lowest divorce rate is Massachusetts, the center of gay marriage land; followed by Connecticut, New Jersey, Rhode Island, and New York. The American state with the highest divorce rate? Nevada, with Oklahoma, Tennessee, Wyoming and Indiana rounding out the bottom five.
That's right, the holier-than-thou Bible Belt has the highest divorce rates in the country, while the liberal Northeast has the lowest. Suck it dry, neocons.

The opposite of true marriage, which of course is same-sex marriage. Opposite Marriage was endorsed in 2009 by Miss California in an attempt to begin a movement to give rights to heterosexual couples. Supporters of "marriage" have blasted proponents of "opposite marriage" because they say it goes against the traditional definition of marriage between 1 man and 1 man or 1 woman and 1 woman.
Bob: Hey did you hear Miss California's speech last night?
Mary: Yeah! Maybe opposite-sex couples will finally have the same rights as everyone else! Maybe we can finally have an opposite marriage and express our true love!

A bond of love between two members of the same sex. Controversy arises from superstition, religious cults, and ignorance surrounding the nature of nature.
It seems odd that so many claim it's a "choice." I'm guessing the right wingers also "chose" to be attracted to women and that they could snap their fingers and "choose" to be attracted to men as well. It's as though they think a teen will be in school one day and suddenly think... "How can I find a way to get beat up more?" You'll notice that bashing and hatred suddenly dies down when it's a member of your own family.

A union between members of the same gender that raises debates because some people are dick heads that think it should be banned because it goes against God or is a result of ignorance. Since when the hell does the Bible have any saying in the American consitution?! Gays are people too!

What must be legalized in order to have a fully egalitarian society. It's just like the 'no interracial marriage' laws, gay marriage is bound for legality at some point as society progresses and becomes more equal and fair.
Face it, people who oppose gay marriage are the same people who hate blacks, Jews, Latinos, yada yada yada...and why do they get so much credibility in promoting "morality"?
