How, exactly, does gay marriage threaten me?

I think an occasional blowjob would suffice.

just call it sodo-union / not marriage and give it the same legal standing. since gays don't accept sodomy as a sin, what do they care if it's called a sodo-union. This way religious folk aren't offended by dragging the traditional word marriage down the dirt highway (so to speak) and everybody gays can live in a sodo-utopia.

Then lets change "marriage" (which really just means love and isn't exclusive to hetero love) to P-in-the-V-union, if we're going to define relationships solely by where the partners bump uglies.

Too late! People like you fought the idea of a separate but legally equal status. You lose! Time will end your tyranny, and in your golden years you will be living in Sodo-America. Hope you like it. You will be able to apply for a special non-sodo-union status. Can't guarantee that all fifty states will accept it though. And the rest of us will be laughing at you because you can't get a blowjob.

You do not speak for "religious people.". You speak only for yourself. I, for one, do not share your beliefs, and I promise you that I am a religious person.

As a heterosexual married woman, would you define my relationship with my husband as built around vaginal sex? I must say, if asked to describe what my marriage is built around, I'd identify love, mutual support and consideration, kindness, and collaboration as the defining characteristics. Your fixation with sex as the defining element of a relationship is quite telling.

You could have "love, mutual support and consideration, kindness, and collaboration" with any number of people e.g. your brother, sister, father, mother, a friend. You don't have sex vaginal sex with them. If you think that vaginal sex wasn't a big draw for your husband, think again. Just ask him. Would he have married you if you were sworn to celibacy? You are his wife not his roommate.

In case you didn't notice, you can get sex with just about anyone, too.

The implication was that vaginal sex was necessary not sufficient.

Well then this is patently false. There are plenty of people who marry who do not, or are not even capable of, vaginal sex. We don't ban them from matrimony because they are paraplegic, have ED, or are older and just not interested in it anymore. I have not heard a campaign against these people, so why pick on others?

Since ancient times a marriage was not considered consummated until vaginal sex had taken place. Marriages could be nullified if one of the parties could not complete the act. So it's not marital window dressing. In the vast majority of marriages, it's a pretty big deal.

You know what else was common in ancient times? Human slavery. And infanticide. And witch burning. And public stoning. Women as property. Life spans under 40 years. Arranged marriages. Rigid class systems and formal ostracism. Do you recommend we bring these back as well? Vaginal sex was seen as consummating a marriage because women were believed to belong to the men of society. First the father, and then her husband. When in possession of her father, she was expected to remain a virgin. Upon having ownership transferred to the husband, she was now his sexual possession and she could be "deflowered". It wasn't the vaginal sex itself that was consummating, but the breaking of the hymen. If this didn't take place, the husband had grounds for annulment under the notion that he was entitled to a virgin bride and the belief that a broken hymen could only be the result of sex. It wasn't about the "right" way to have sex or love or join people together... it was about the subjugation of women to men and the use of sex and sexual organs as organs of empowerment.

Not only ancient times . . .I believe there are countries in which these views and actions still occur . . .

Try telling polyamorists that the link between gay marriage and group marriage is tenuous at best. We are on our way.

Try telling gay people that marriage between two men is so terribly different from between a man and a woman.

You're on your way out, old man!

Polygamy is next and it should be. Throwing people in jail for it would be ridiculous in a country that permits homosexual marriage. Deconstruction of the heterosexual monogamous monopoly on marriage means much more than allowing two homosexuals to marry. It also means the indoctrination of public school students as we've seen this week in California.
