This is pretty close to my own position, except I would insist that we stop having any government, state or federal, call the union between man/woman, man/man, or woman/woman, "marriage." As far as the government is concerned, we're all domestic partners and joint filers, period.

I would go even further. Government get out of the marriage business. There should be no government derived benefits and no government imposed penalities associated with whom you choose to spend your time. The only exception is when children are the product of a union, the child's interest is the only thing that should control and the government should enforce it as necessary.
