I think limiting (with judicial means) one's sexual choice is a bad precedent; a state who would do that would pretty soon enforce selective mating and ban all forms of "dissident" behaviour and thinking; now, you might say that would be good, more, that would be your ideal nation, but think for a second: what if that dictatorship was communist, or ultra-democratic or whatnot? Not a pretty future, huh?
Don't everyone love to have the fancy liberal saying in the right moment?

What people forget in those moments are things like that displaying their homosexuality in public, they create a confusion in children who are in a phase of mental growth and development, and who usually do what they see grown up people (or what they perceive as grown up people), be them the parents or strangers.

Marriage is an institution of heterosexual couples, not a sex habit. Why should they imitate heterosexuals, if they are and want to be different?

By the way, the admittance of their right to marriage implies the admittance of their right to have children (which mother nature denies them).. or to adopt them.
