That's just it, the issue isn't about the relationship it's about the governments insistence about it being a marriage. For me I really couldn't care less who does what to who, what, where or when.

What I do find offensive is a government & certain groups demanding & insisting that I accept their ways on an even footing. Why should I ? I'm prepared to let people go about their lives as they choose so long as I can have the same freedoms, it's the individuals choice, but being forced to accept a situation gives rise to resentment which then furthers intolerance.

On top of that there are far more pressing issues affecting the populace. Now if only the government would attempt to resolve these concerns with a modicum of the ardour they've pursued this insignificance, well, we'd probably have full employment, secured borders & a booming economy.
