IL:
Call it what you want. If a gay couple can't get married because of gender restrictions, it's discriminatory against gay relationships.
And I'm not implying marriage is a relationship requirement. I meant that denying access to marriage implies gay couples aren't legitimate couples. That's discrimination.
Are gay couples legitimate couples?
If yes, why can they not marry?
If no, isn't that discrimination?
Why must "marry" mean man and woman? Does God not want gays to form unions? Why or why not?
