    This is my 2c and feel free to throw the flame buckets... But it would sound well if SE called it a partner ship or a union of sorts. For all cases be it of same gender or other wise, that way they would not be in hot water "politically".. Idea being to not step on any toes. Meaning the word marriage should not be used.

    What we should really do is come up with a term, other than marriage, that best describes a relationship between two individuals based on love (since that is what people defend as their need to call it a marriage). I mean honestly, there is nothing in the definition of marriage that says ANYTHING about love and if you know anything about history it has CERTAINLY been an optional component.
    I couldn't agree more!

    We've gone over that idea a bunch in this thread and it went down really well, so don't worry, you can unequip that flame shield! Though if there's a name change, it should be the same across the board. Would be much safer to abolish the term 'marriage' altogether.

    Act in such a way that you treat humanity, whether in your own person or in the person of another, always at the same time as an end and never simply as a means
