As for the topic at hand, your questions actually don't address "democracy failing" at all. You're talking about one specific issue and how only a percentage feel about it. I don't think democracy has failed. I think the bulk of people involved in stopping gay marriage are nosy assholes.
So you will deny democracy to the majority when they go against your wishes.

What about women, slaves, single parents etc. etc. Minorities who demanded humane treatment, but do you feel that they asked for too much? Did the democratic system fail e.g. when women got the right to vote?
What about them? Seems you want to discuss apples when we are talking about oranges.
