The government restricting marriage on the basis of sex/gender gives more rights to the government (in restricting marriage) and less to the people. All people have more choices when it comes to marriage if everyone is allowed to marry someone of either the opposite or the same sex.
If you read through any of my writings on gay marriage, you'd know that I have taken a neutral if not supportive position on homosexuals being able to marry. So, I am really for government getting out of telling people who they can marry period.
