I think it's not a major priority at the moment, though I definitely support gay marriage. It's just more of a social issue being pushed, in my opinion, prematurely in a time we need to focus on the economy.
Also, I know I should probably feel upset towards people who don't approve of homosexuality and call them a Bible-humping bigot or whatever, but I don't really mind as long as they aren't all militant about it. They can still be a good person. It's just butt-fuckin'

The only advantage to marriage is that tax cut married couples get.

My effective tax rate fell quite a lot after marriage. Feels good, man :-D

And the ability to visit loved ones in the hospital and being able to make health decisions for a spouse. There are also major child custody benefits.

Me.
I don't care for gay marriage as I consider marriage to be a religious thing.
I do support civil unions, though, and being given the same legal rights.

I don't give a shit about being married per se, I just want all the perks and benefits.
