If you have marriage something beyond a man and a woman than anything goes. The fact that a woman married you is an example of the institution itself beinguseless. Instead of making worthless vids you should get a job instead of leaching off everybody else.

By the way I am in a same sex marriage so this is a hypothetical. I would argue that the root problem is that the English marriage practice that the USA inherited was that pastors / priests / rabbis etc. do the state's work for them. In most of Europe you have a marriage at the town hall and then if you want a religious service - this is also true for the civil union in the UK. I think the splitting of the task removes the religious from the sphere of government.

There was a news story on TV. About a lesbian couple that came from Florida to get married in Canada. Then they wanted a divorce and were told they were not legally married.

I was going to mention something along the lines of what johncrwarner did. The question arises that marriage places special considerations to a couple that individuals don't get. Should there be such special considerations? I guess it comes down to asking what marriage is. Is it an agreement between people? Is there something about this agreement that changes how each of the members of the group should be regarded by anyone with respect to their treatment within society? It seems a good question
