But there are restrictions on which man/woman you can marry, right?
Are there? If so, are those reasons arbitrary or is there a purpose?
You don't like the purpose of restricting SSM. You've stated as much, many times, over the last 155 pages. So don't ask me what it is. Go back and read.
What does that even mean???
You said marriage is restricted in other ways. I asked how and why?
Here's an example:
You can't marry a seven year old. Why? Children (with some exceptions) can't contract. It's presumed by the law that they don't have the ability to navigate adult decisions. The purpose of this law is to protect children.
Your turn
Gays can't get married. Why?_____________. The purpose of this law is to__________.
You can't fill those blanks in because an answer doesn't exist.
