you state pretty straight up that you have your own definition of marriage, which I respect at that. I believe the best non-reiligous reason for voting yes comes down to simple biology, that makes it self-evident that we are intended to wed a member of the opposite sex and be raised by our biological mother and father.

Marriage is a social, religious,spiritual, or legal union of human individuals. This union may also be called matrimony, while the ceremony that marks its beginning is usually called a wedding and the married status created is sometimes called wedlock.

Marriage is an institution in which interpersonal relationships (usually intimate and sexual) are acknowledged by the state or by religious authority. It is often viewed as a contract.

marrige in of itself it a contract between two adults.
