PC will mandate by law the ban of the use mother and father. Talkshows already use "co-parent".
Homosexuality need to be taught as morally wrong beyond just religious reasons. Marriage is a public institution that needs protection from these deviants.

But it does not disturb the fundamental value of marriage in our societyFor these peole this is true because, to them, there is no fundamental value to marriage. Marx didn't believe in it so there is none.

So, when two lesbains or two homosexuals get married, how do the guest know who is the husband and who is the wife? Better yet, how do they decide?

Here is another slippery slope to consider. By making gay marriages legal, any attempt to differentiate between a gay or traditional marriage is opened up to a legal challenge.
This means not just adoption, but also the performing of wedding ceremonies by priests, and the membership requirements of churches too. I think you will see the courts ruling that churches may not refuse to perform gay weddings or refuse membership to anyone in a gay marriage long before you see some polygamy case. Churches that won't knuckle under to the courts could lose their tax-free status or worse.
Far fetched? In 1887 Congress passed the Edmunds-Tucker Act. This statute disincorporated a large church and seized nearly all its property because they disagreed with the state over the definition of marriage. The issue then was polygamy, but ironically the act give a precedent that can easily be turned against churches that hold to the traditional definition of marriage.

Of course the most radical redefinition of marriage in centuries is going to have deeply disturbing consequences. And those deeply disturbing consequences are the very reason the homosexual activists and their bots are pushing the gay agenda.
Note that in "Brave New World" the words "mother" and "father" were deeply offensive words, never to be used in polite society.
