89. oh for god's sake...
both arguments are prepostrous. to say that gay marriage will send human reproduction grinding to a halt is absurd. hello, gay people are already gay, straight people are straight. marriage will change that how? not to mention that marriage is NOT a requirement for reproduction! nowadays, not even SEX is a requirement!

in addition, the 'traditional' (lord how i hate that word) style nuclear family, which is technically not a long-standing tradition (the nuclear family is a relatively new, and western, construct) is NOT the most effective family environment for raising children...the 'village' or extended family structure is actually better.
