It doesn't matter that they can co-exist. The judge decided there is no rational basis to ban gay marriage. I'm afraid he is just plain wrong because a good case can be made that heterosexual unions provide more value to a society/population. If heterosexual unions are more valuable to a society/population then the state may want to incentivize heterosexual unions over other unions.
It seems to me that more homosexual unions would be a benefit to society. Homosexual couples are more likely to adopt than heterosexuals and their children are at a statistical advantage for success in many areas, especially education. Evening out the balance a little would mean less orphans and more intelligent future voters.
In a world that seems to be over populated already, I see no reason to place more value on heterosexual unions.
Also, allowing same sex marriage will neither increase the number of homosexuals, nor decrease the number of heterosexuals.
