    By this criteria, should infertile people also not get married, even if they are heterosexual? Heterosexual couples that don't want children? What about old couples past menopause? Should they get divorced now that they cannot procreate? Because in your words, love doesn't matter? Using procreation as justification is a flawed argument.

    Just for argument sake it isn't really flawed and its not really surmised. The empirical evidence to support the claim can be provided form evolutionary biology, evolutionary psychology, and anthropological findings and theory in the form of natural selection. Genes that directly benefit the successful production of offspring survive while genes that can't become extinct. So there is some truth that procreation is the 'correct' path for survival as its safe to assume if you can't produce offspring your genetic heritage can't continue, unless one has other siblings to carry on the torch. This is true for all species. The concept of 'love', 'morality', and 'equality' are just social constructions they do not exist in nature. But I digress, this was rather off topic lol.
