Good for them! I'm happy to see people doing whatever they want to do without bothering anyone else and without the government trying to limit their freedoms.

Me too but pretending to be married and demanding the governments stamp of approval for their fake marriage is going too far. A major purpose and function of marriage is for the protection of the rights of children who may result within a relationship- but gays cannot produce children and yet classifying their unions as marriage legitimises and encourages the denying of children of the presence and care of both biological parents.

I agree that government should not be in position to give "stamp of approval" for anything that a free person wants to do without hurting others. That is indeed too far.

Same-sex married couples can adopt, or use e.g. donor sperm (so go through full pregnancy - i.e. produce the children in their uterus, IVF) and they hold the same responsibilities for the children. There are shitty parents and non-shitty parents on both sides. Frankly, since gays have to fight for it more and the barriers are higher (vs "oops, didn't pull out"), my guess would be that there is a smaller % of the shitty parents on the gay side (again, that's just my guess, no data).

Same sex 'married' couples cannot naturally or inherently create a child from their union.

They can only obtain a child by denying it the presence of at least one of its parents from its home, family and upbringing.

Marriage is the joining/melding of two into one and same sex couples are not biologically capable of this and thus same sex marriage is a woke abomination, blatant falsehood and tantamount, imo, to enabling child abuse, when the claim of marriage is used to infer the 'right' to raise children, where those children are not and cannot be created within that union.

Same sex identifying people have significantly higher levels of childhood trauma. They are traumatised individuals and inherently incapable of producing children in a 'marriage' with their partner.
