Same as saying, "If I get an abortion, how that that be a threat to someone else's right to carry their baby to term?"

Straw horse argument. It's not about a particular marriage; it's the institution of marriage which we don't want to be forced to redefine.

A counter question would be, what should the definition of marriage be, and who should decide what that definition is?
