We all have the exact same marriage rights. Every single one of us.

A simple fact, not everyone is "free" to marry ANYONE else of their choosing.

(A) must be a member of the opposite sex

(B) must not presently be married

(C) must not be a close relation

(D) must be above a certain age established by state law

So Tom can marry Susan but George cannot marry Susan (unless Tom divorces her).

The sex positive proponents don't care, if two people are sexually attracted they should hook up, regardless of society's "old" rules.
