To me marriage as a word is dead. It should be replaced with something more accurate that doesn't remind me of the word 'merry'. Like 'forcibly making the community reckognize your parity by forging a pact that magically makes your relationship more important but dull and romance doomed to die out'-age. I don't know why some gay people even desire that for the sake of just that.
They might have other more practical things in mind like adopting people or making a health insurance plan together, though.
Proper traditional marriage was between a man and a virgin though, right? That's all that white dress and pure maiden symbolism thing. So the whole "gay people can't marry because it's against the symbolism of our ceremony harbl" excuse has gone out the window many a moons ago.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
