Marriage feedback [inofficial Poll]

Kuzuk and Eagleheart, you are totally allowed to have an opinion. That opinion is completely valid. Do not conflate your opinion to be fact. Check out marriage around the world to see how different it is. As far as biology argument, yeah so infertile people of any gender should be married correct? As far as population goes, we are already straining our resources. I personally think the backlash from not adding it would fade in today's 24 hour news cycle. When all is said and done I think the best option is for SE to allow for players to do ceremonies on their own and not sanction any ceremonies as official in game. It save them the backlash from either side. Oh one last thing for you privileged folks, what is marriage but wanting to have one relationship validated? Yeah thought so you want yours validated, but refuse to validate others. Way to be a good human.

Thats where this comes in:

I think having crafted wedding (or joining) items that one can trade to any gender they want as a marriage (or union) proposal or in the actual marriage (or union) would be a good comprimise to having GM sponsering either opposite or same sex marriages (or unions)

For rings, they are completely statless and the item becomes untradeable after being traded. Clothing and accessories can be made and sold/traded freely. Hopefully with the addition of signatures from the crafter on the crafted item, we can add a few lines of text too, so there can be custom wedding (or joining) vows on them.

This way SE just gives players the choice on what gender they are going to marry (or join with) without being directly involved. Not saying that is the best choice, but I think it is a good alternative. This way the ~vast minority~ wont whine about things that wont even involve them. It would also be easier not involved 'waiting in line' to get married (or joined) by a GM.
