Even when I was against gay marriage, I never understood calling it something else. It's all a matter of semantics. A rose by any other name is still a rose. The English language changes so rapidly anyway. Case in point, if you went back to the 20's and told someone you were gay, they would likely think you were having a good time. Now it's coming to mean that something is ridiculously stupid. If you're going to give gays every right they should have, why not give them the word marriage too?
