There is no way it would be 'repealed'. A constiutional amendment can only be repealed by another constitutional amendment, and while opinion my shift more in favor, there will never be enough support for a constitutional amendment to allow gay marriages.

Only time will tell but, based upon my observations of todays teens and young adults, 90% of them view homosexuality as being normal and acceptable. Within a couple of generations they will be the majority. That majority coupled with homosexuals framing the debate of non-traditional marriage as a civil rights issue will provide strong support for the repeal of any Constitutional Amendment concerning marriage.

You are making several large assumptions to bolster your position, the first of which is that the social liberalism of the young is a static situation that does not change as they wed and produce children.

Secondly, the overwhelming majority of young folks are woefully ill informed no matter the issue. It is high time that this issue is openly debated and all possible ramifications to liberalizing, read redefining, marriage be placed on the table for one and all to ponder upon.

Thirdly, young people, as a rule, don't vote. Whether that is good or bad is up to the individual's to decide but it is none the less true.
