No one can know, of course, but I would not be surprised if the demand for gay marriages would drop by 90%. It would also eliminate many of the arguments for having gay marriages. There seem to be only two general arguments for gay marriages. One, it deprives a tiny section of society of some benefits which the rest of society can get. And, two, if gays can call themselves married, people will accept them more easily.
The question of gay marriage ceases to be a concern to more than about 1 in 500, and the government spends less money.

I just cannot for the life of me understand how people can claim a fight for a single group of people to be included into the majority is in any way a fight for equality.

The LBGT movement love to compare themselves to the civil rights movement of the 60's. While I agree that many things are held in common between them one thing stands out. The civil rights movement was not solely about one group of people. Granted, the African-American community gained the most from the reforms enacted, but all minorities were represented. Where are the other groups of people disenfranchised by marriage inequality laws in this modern civil rights movement?

I don't think any rational adult argues for marriage to inanimate objects, children, or animals. Those are usually used to demonize the LBGT cause and I can assure you that is in no way my intent.
I do not in any form or fashion equate homosexuality to perversions with children or animals.
I DO support marriage equality for everyone. I just do not support calling it traditional marriage. I think to do so is simply a bold faced lie.
