Another more serious consideration would be the effect on children of gay couples. Would such a child have two "mothers" or two "fathers?" Would such children face identity issues later in life? I don't know, but such relationships exist today, so the issue of marriage won't necessarily change that. It would be a stretch to say that children psychologically "damaged" (if that is the case) from growing up with same-sex parents would add a cost to me.
The bottom line is that I still can't come up with a strong argument for or against gay marriage but I wonder if the gays that are pushing for legalization have fully considered the consequences? I suspect the biggest beneficiaries of same-sex marriage may very well be divorce attorneys.
