"You could not be more wrong. If you really do oppose “gay marriage”, you would never advocate its legal recognition."

I do oppose gay marriage, but where it has been deemed legal, it must be recognized, and marriage law - even in the states - is subject to the "full faith and credit" principle of the Constitution, in which states must recognize the duly enacted laws of other states. A person married at 17 in Nevada is still legally married if he/she moves to a state with a higher legal age for marriage. That is one reason WHY people got married in Nevada - to circumvent the marriage laws of their own state.
