36. We already have gay divorces, and custody battles over adopted kids
and gay adultery, and gay spousal abuse, prenuptual agreements, coveting thy neighbor's gay life partner, and all kinds of BS that make it surprisingly similar to traditional marriage. Why shouldn't gays suffer too? Comedian Carlos Mencia was right when he wished he could tell his wife "eh sorry, but it's not legal!".

Blacks fought for so long to get the chains off, and now gays are fighting for the right to get the chains on.

:silly:

eh, let them have it. I think civil unions/domestic partnerships are easier to pass and many states already have it. The word "marriage" generates a strong emotional response due to the association with religion.
