If the government just changed the "word" they use to refer to marriage so that the word "marriage" doesn't have to be redefined to include "a man and a man" or a "woman and a woman", you get a compromise that everyone can live with.


Well that ship sailed in the 90's when the gay community pushed for civil unions(not marriage) and they were pushed back by a lot of the same people fighting them on gay marriage today.



That was 20 years ago. Times have changed and so have opinions, attitudes, and demographics.

Yep, which is why gay marriage in all 50 states is inevitable. It's really not that big of a deal for a large majority of the under 30 crowd, and it's gaining acceptance with the over 30 crowd.
