If the difference is gender, and one form is allowed based on gender, and the other is prohibited based on gender, it is GENDER DISCRIMINATION.
And as we keep pointing out, but you continue to ignore, it does not matter if two things are different.
A jew is different from a christian.
But the law still treats them the same. Quote: |

This is just another attempt to work "literacy" in the issue when the real emphasis that is desired is "anti-black". Quote: |

In the end, their rush to turn to requirements which have nothing to do with the fundamentals of marriage demonstrate PRECISELY a desire to "damage" marriage.
Love is irrelevant.
Being able to have a baby is tantamount.
