“[B]ankers and lawyers are boring to look at. … [P]ictures of marching Gap employees don’t sell newspapers. There’s no sinister media agenda intent on making gay people look ridiculous, no fag-hating cabal behind the annual front page explosion of sequins and feathers. It’s just good copy.

“In Spain, where 90% of the population is Roman Catholic, the church came out swinging against [marriage] rights for gays, using the familiar line that gay marriage imperils the traditional institution of marriage. This has always been a difficult argument to follow logically. Assuming that marriage is the binding of two people in a committed relationship, possibly to create a family, gay marriage adds to the institution. Even granting most religions’ insistence that the two people must be of different genders, gay marriage does nothing to discourage or belittle heterosexual unions.”
