Hi Jamie, welcome to FR.
Here you will find that PC speak, feel-good posts won't get much respect or consideration. Be that as it may, I will address your post.
I have no problem, my wife receives the benefits from our marriage that I earn. She earns these by doing her part in our marriage. Our marriage is one of the most basic building blocks of civilization, and it is so because both the individuals and the society benefit from marriage, it is a two way contract between the individuals as one unit and society as the other (it is also a contract between the individuals). Society benefits from marriage by the creation of stable families and the replenishment of socially oriented children, the future of the society.
Adam and Steve, on the other hand, do have a problem, they cannot provide to society the benefits that a heterosexual marriage provides. The contract becomes one-way benefiting only Adam and Steve as they demand all the benefits from society without reciprocating to that society the benefits due it from the marriage.
I short, gay marriage would be granting special privileges to gays, society would be paying the costs in entitlements to gays and they would not return stable family environments and properly trained children to perpetuate the society.
And, NO, gays are not the same as you and me.
I would point out that gays have the option of doing pretty much whatever they want in our society today without gay marriage, all the legal problems of these relationships are easily surmountable with a couple hours at a good family law attorney, with the exception of one. That one is the ability to get free financial benefits from the society (state or business entities) because they are "married" rather than domestic partners. Make no mistake, "gay marriage" is only about the ability of gays to pick the pockets of straights by force. Love has nothing to do with it, free benefits is what makes the radical gays tick, and what makes them "happy".
Lastly, I would point out that many gays have engaged in heterosexual marriage, and had children by those marriages, earning all those benefits bestowed by society on persons married. So gays are not denied the right to marry, or denied the benefits of marriage, they just want special "rights" that others don't have.
