A scene at City Hall in San Francisco-----------

"Next."

"Good morning. We want to apply for a marriage license."

"Names?"

"Tim and Jim Jones."

"Jones? Are you related? I see a resemblance."

"Yes, we're brothers."

"Brothers? You can't get married."

"Why not? Aren't you giving marriage licenses to same gender couples?"

"Yes, thousands. But we haven't had any siblings. That's incest!"

"Incest?" No, we are not gay."

"Not gay? Then why do you want to get married?"

"For the financial benefits, of course. And we do love each other.

Besides, we don't have any other prospects."

"But we're issuing marriage licenses to gay and lesbian couples who've

been denied equal protection under the law. If you are not gay, you can

get married to a woman."

"Wait a minute. A gay man has the same right to marry a woman as I have.

But just because I'm straight doesn't! mean I want to marry a woman. I

want to marry Jim."

"And I want to marry Tim. Are you going to discriminate against us just

because we are not gay?"

"All right, all right. I'll give you your license. Next."

"Hi. We are here to get married."

"Names?"

"John Smith, Jane James, Robert Green, and June Johnson."

"Who wants to marry whom?"

"We all want to marry each other."

"But there are four of you!"

"That's right. You see, we're all bisexual. I love Jane and Robert, Jane

loves me and June, June loves Robert and Jane, and Robert loves June and

me. All of us getting married together is the only way that we can

express our sexual preferences in a marital

relationship."

"But we've only been granting licenses to gay and lesbian couples."

"So you're discriminating against bisexuals!"

"No, it's just that, well, the traditional idea of marriage is that it's

just for couples."

"Since when are you standing on tradition?"

"Well, I mea n, you have to draw the line somewhere."

"Who says? There's no logical reason to limit marriage to couples. The

more the better. Besides, we demand our rights! The mayor says the

constitution guarantees equal protection under the law. Give us a

marriage license!"

"All right, all right. Next."

"Hello, I'd like a marriage license."

"In what names?"

"David Deets."

"And the other man?"

"That's all. I want to marry myself."

"Marry yourself? What do you mean?"

"Well, my psychiatrist says I have a dual personality, so I want to

marry the two together. Maybe I can file a joint income-tax return."

"That does it! I quit!! You people are making a mockery of marriage!!"

Equal protection under law, diversity, tolerance all sound good to me. But I was suspicious and spent a couple of minutes trying to understand the sudden rash toward same sex marriages and finally figured it out. Like most issues of public morals, in order to determine who is really behind the movement, one must follow the money. Who stands to proffit from same sex marriage? Obviously the driving force behind this comes from divorce attorneys. :P
