This is cognate to the "Black people can get married, just not to members of a different race" argument, which has long been recognized as specious.

- lol214365 10y agoInterracial marriage has been around for time immemorial and in no way affects the nature of a marriage. Gay marriage was invented in the past coupled decades by left-wing ideologues. Even in ancient societies where homosexuality was the norm, they didn't have gay marriage. Gay marriage also entirely deviates from the original purpose of marriage: to settle down to monogamy to birth and raise children. The idea that the two are comparable is pretty ridiculous.
