Do you seriously get offended if two gays get married? How Mehmet, does it actually physically affect your life?Public to everyone. That is actually the point. You are publicly announcing something when you get married. Of course if you do value marriage.
How? Obviously it does not affect my life here, but you can be sure that this will affect your life over there. And the lives of your children, if you have any. I've already said much about this.

A government issued marriage license is nothing more than a written contract binding you to be financially obligated to the person you marry. It does not give straight couples the right to have sex in public. Do you think gay orgies in public would suddenly become legal if gays had the same right?
Gays and lesbians are not a sub class or a sub species. They should have the right to sign a government issued marriage license. Anyone objecting to this is merely insecure and a fear monger.
Why should it be legal? EQUAL RIGHTS! HUMAN RIGHTS! HUMAN DIGNITY!
Equal rights are amongst equals. Obviously we're equal only on equal terms.
Exactly how will it affect peoples' lives? Some random straight couple getting married has fuck all affect on me, so a gay couple doing the same will also have fuck all affect.
I didn't realise it was you who gets to choose who's equal.
