Under that rational let’s outlaw marriage altogether, because there is no rational reason to deny polygamy now. If you can have a law that only
a man and
a woman can marry, why can’t you have a law where only two individuals can marry? Then you are not suppressing individual rights. Individual rights are something I believe this country was founded on. To me it is not about a popularity contest, it is not about giving people extra rights, it is about everyone having the same rights.
