I suspect that 17% is high and it will taper off, seeing that same-gender “marriage” (it sure isn’t the same sex!)has been legalized only recently.
Homosexuals push for “marriage” purely to be in-the-face of Biblical marriage. Many heterosexuals are not marrying for about the same reason.

“I suspect that 17% is high and it will taper off, seeing that same-gender “marriage” (it sure isn’t the same sex!)has been legalized only recently.”
You may be reading these results wrong; I don’t think the story is that there is so many “gay marriages” that they comprise 17% of the total, but there are so few real marriages that they are only 83% of the total.
From what I see around me (which granted is a narrow view), traditional marriage will become the realm of a small number of traditional people (who will preserve it forever).
