LAST EDITED ON 01-31-13 AT 06:25 PM (EST)I just don't think anyone wants to live with the consequences of "if you aren't procreating there is no reason to be married" even if a lot of marriage benefits were because it benefits the children and as a by-product just happens to benefit the adults even in cases where there are no kids.
Just a word of warning, never try to run for office in NC if you are married to a woman you can't have kids with. Because if you did that here you would be declared a homosexual, they haven't yet figured out how to make that so you can't have the benefits of being married to a woman when you clearly have to be gay, yet, but they sure will try to keep you from being elected.
ETA: I'm just saying if you are arguing marriage requires kids and if those individuals can't make biological baby without interference can't be married, what do you do with all the other people that can't make a biological baby without interference, why one group gets benefits and the other does not?
