marriage has been considered a religious rite by many cultures for centuries
but now in an increasingly non-religious world it is a legal agreement between two people that means a benefit tax wise and allows a person to have health insurance without having to be employed. it also creates stability in child production and property ownership stability.
and with an increasingly "getting older" population allows people to make health care decisions for another person.
why not increase the stability of a culture?
and if I can be just a little snarky - with the problems related to dissolution of that partnership - why should only heterosexuals have to deal with it?
