2. Do you mean like marrying a Platonic friend?
I heard this arguement against gay marriage: "Two heterosexual same sex friends might marry for benefits if we allow same sex marriage."
This already happens in opposite sex couples sometimes, some of who are gay. I don't know how you can really prevent that. That is one reason that I am against polygamous marriages. People who are legally married cannot marry other people without a divorce. That discourages some of that behavior for people who in the future would want to marry someone who they'd really be a spouse to.
