34. I dont see any real problem w. same sex civil marriage.
Of course Im biased on the issue, but I dont see any real cause-and -effect relationship w. permitting same sex civil marriage and the decline of heterosexual marriage or heterosexual familys.

I guess there is some sort of pyschological effect being postulated here...where the fact that gays and lesbians can have a civil marriage means that straight couples and familys are somehow "given permission" to cheat on cheat other and get divorced.

Is that the argument here?
