Social security benefits and anything else that is federally limited to [hetero] husbands & wives. Companies and state govt’s. are free to give bennies to same-sex couples, but not so at the federal level. The last frontier!

“...what are they after?”

The means to use the state to punish those who don’t agree with them. It was always a danger with the state’s involvement, as the definition the state uses to recognize the institution is simply whatever judges, pols, or the majority thinks it is at any one time. Also, to convince many to accept ‘gay marriage’, as many have been conditioned in the modern era to think that marriage comes from and is defined by the gubberment. There’s lots of folks that will accept any marriage as long as it comes with a piece of paper from the state.
