| Those arguing to legalise same-sex marriages tell us it is all about love, and all love should be equal. It is a simple and appealing message, and one intended to gloss over the real issues. If same-sex marriage is all about love, then that’s the problem.
The simple truth is that marriage isn’t always about love, and love isn’t always about marriage. There are lots of cases where people enter into arranged marriages, without there ever being any sense of love when they marry. There are also people who love each other deeply who never intend to marry. This is as true for gay and lesbians couples as it is for heterosexual couples.
But the real problem is when we say that all love is equal.
