Race is not gender, so what do you not get about that, eh? Skin color is nothing similar to the differences in anatomy, the functions of that anatomy, the value rendered to society of these differences, blah blah blah. You can structure your arguments similarly, but you cannot get around the fact that male and female structures are very different. So, way way way different argument.
In addition to that, a society may decide what it will and will not accept. Hanging your hopes on the technicalities of similarly structured cases does not make your case [ I thought we had previously gone over this ].
Now, thanks for all the typing to get to: What do you not get about all genders being equally able to marry someone of the opposite sex? That is what we require. That is what we SHOULD require.
You don't think a society can make its own rules? You think that every minority that so desires can use this, and similar arguments, to force any of its ways upon the rest of society? That We, society, can have no say in our own society? That is what you are advocating?
your discriminating against certain gender combinations in the exact same way race combinations in couples were discriminated against
nether race or gender matter when it comes to marriage we don't require anything for a marriage that race or gender effects
pretending people have equality because your applying a rule that benefits you and discriminates against them is dishonest
what don't you get about this
(What do you not get about all genders being equally able to marry someone of the opposite sex? That is what we require. That is what we SHOULD require.)
being the same kind of faulty logic as this
(What do you not get about all races being equally able to marry someone of the same race? That is what we require. That is what we SHOULD require.)
