Equal rights is smoke and mirrors because some people, regardless of sexuality, get married for reasons other than love?
Dude, what? Why don't you elaborate on that for me. If someone were getting married just for health insurance, why would they care about the gender of their partner? And what does this have to do with equal rights?
Are you just ignoring all the gay couples who love their partners and want the government to treat that union the same as straight couples? Like, that doesn't count?
Don't be silly. There are a lot of reasons why homosexuals might want the government to let them "marry". Healthcare, partner benefits, social security, survivorship, taxes, pissing off the "evangelicals" they hate with a passion...... lots of reasons. But the one reason you can be absolutely sure they don't want to get married for is the reason we have marriage in the first place; joining together to create a family and bear children.
