Marriage equality actually helps "regular" marriage, which, last I checked, hovered around the 50% rate:

I think they're wrong—marriage isn't inequitable at its core. But Sullivan and Gallagher are wrong, too, when they claim that the essence of marriage is beneficent. The truth is that marriage doesn't have an essence, any more than it has a core. Certainly, marriage is an institution, but institutions aren't immutable. They shape us, but we shape them, too. Marriage has been, and can still be, a way to oppress women, to enforce particular gender roles, and even to abuse and torture children. It has also been, and can still be, a way to link family and community in love.

Aren't "institutions", by definition, man-made? At some point, marriage in and of itself is gonna hafta come into question, no?
