Marriage, as well as adoption, is considered a privilege; those who marry or adopt must obey the laws. No ... Broadening our systematic form of marriage weakens it. on a different note, the number of gays (males) exceeds the number of lesbians, and legalizing same-sex marriage may result in male domination, defeating the woman’s role in society.
