I think both hetero or homosexual ceromonies of sharing life together, commonly called marriage should exist for both regardless of any interference, mainly from church then state to a degree.
Then if you've been married once, you were in a marriage. Marry again, you're in a civil union. This should apply for both straight and gay. Since marriage has been so cheapened (by the 50% heterosexual divorce rate), the word 'marriage' really shouldn't even be an issue.
As for those so tender of heart that they feel their "marriage" is now meaningless cuz gay's might be able to be treated equally and fairly, well then they really need a hobby or to get out,or something.
