This same logic was applied to interracial marriage bans.
Well duh of course, but they still had to be male and female, no matter what color they were. This is not the same argument because I could easily say that black men cannot marry black men or white men, or pink men, and black women cannot marry black women, or white women, or pink women. Now what legal genius? What is the gender being protected against? Discrimination, right? Well how are either men or women being unequally discriminated against? The fact that there is discrimination is not the question, of course there is, the question is does society have a rational reason to do so? In the case of interracial marriage it did not. Adding another layer to interracial marriage like gender is what it is. Adding another layer to the legal question. Blacks can marry whites, but blacks can't marry whites or blacks or pinks of the same gender. God do you people make a living out of muddying the waters?
