    Just because something was defined hundreds of years ago doesn’t mean it should stay that way forever, and it shouldn’t

    So just because something was “defined” that means it should never change? Voting used to be defined as only white men voting. By your logic, we shouldn’t have changed that. Same for women having their own bank account or credit cards, everyone wearing seatbelts, smoking areas, etc.

    But yes, the reason why marriage is unequal with gays is because of the benefits that come with being married. There’s no other way for gay couples to have those benefits unless they’re legally married. You might not be homophobic, but you’re absolutely wrong

      And what does any of that have to do with what I said? Nothing. Zero. Zilch.

      I clearly explained how it should have been changed. The courts have said the same thing.
