LMAO!!! consummation and procreation go hand in hand. Society did not come to grant privilege and respect to marriage because of LOVE. It gas everything to do with procreation and raising children -ding ding -CONSUMMATION!
Reality at a minimum requires the possibility of consummation REGARDLESS any exceptions. Exceptions to the rules do not make the rules. As to homosexual sex it is not an exception -it is a consummation IMPOSSIBILITY.
Homosexual LOVE does not benefit and is as such irrelevant to society to all but delusional leftists.
Are you a delusional leftist?
I asked about a legal requirement, not a moral requirement, not a religious requirement. A legal requirement codified into state law. If you have a list of states with that in their law, please provide a list including cites. I’ve see a supposed list, but, upon checking just a few of the states listed, found the list to be incorrect. So, we are talking about the LAW. After all, we are a nation of laws. Which states REQUIRE consummation of a marriage in order for the marriage to be valid? And include cites to the applicable law, otherwise I won’t believe you and it doesn’t count.
