Sitara that is a very good point.
However I think gay marriage starts to hurt when people start to ask for more rights, which is sadly happening in this world.
We start asking for rights, and if its declined, we start protests, which then turn into outbreaks worthy of landing themselves in the newspaper.
It doesn't hurt anyone, so long as the marriage only affects the people married.
There are gay couples who live happy lives while not affecting anyone else. Gay marriage is perfectly fine, so long as it doesn't affect the innocent.
