I think you should be able to be married if you want to.

But I don't understand why its so important. Isn't a marriage a public declaration of love to friends, loved ones, and community? Can't this be accomplished without a "legal" ceremony? Are these folks ties to one another any stronger cause they are "recognized?"

I guess its an equal access issue and I am probably not being sensitive to those who are different then me. But I feel that if you really care for someone, you can celebrate with that person and those around you.

That said, I'm happy for those who really want this, even if I don't quite get why.
