I've said it on other threads, and I'll repeat it here. I couldn't care less who, or what, anyone marries. I just hate the lies and decptions being espoused by the proponents, and the unessecary fights they start in worship to the almight God named Publicity.
Way back when this all started in California, the California legislature took up the idea and said, "Sure, we'll creat a new set of guidlines called civil union and you'll be good to go" Gay rights groups sued to stop them. They demaded that they get to use the word marraige, and the fight has been on ever since. It was stupid and completely unnesecarry.

For all you supporters of Gay Marriage: What about polygamy?

This, and legal recognition of it, is precisely why marriage has become an Equal Protection issue.

Because they are both violations of the paradigm of genuine marriage. Like it or not.

I have no problem with polygamy being legal, but marriage is a privilege and can be limited to two.

The only problem with that is that it was established with a heterosexist assumption

Yes, but only if its equal. Multi-people relationships should be more acceptable by society.

I am fine with it if all existing parties to the marriage consent to each addition.

The case for polygamy has really weakened rather than strenghtened, you might say.

Legalize polygamy and create a familymaking process, but don't cover polygamy under marriage.

Again, the Equal Protection Clause has far less force on private entities than on government.
