oddly enough, my marriage is unharmed by gay people getting married.

Weird right? Oh, wait, NO IT IS NOT WEIRD, the only people affected by my marriage are me and my husband.

The only people affected by two women or two men being married are those people.

I'm so tired of people thinking that their personal biases and hatreds should be the basis of laws.
