>I think marriage is a contract between a man and a woman. Two men cohabitating, or two women doing likewise, is something else. Call it a civil union, or whatever, it ain't marriage.

>Some people want to be able to marry a child, still others think they should be able to marry their dog.

These are dead arguments as marriage requires consent which an animal can never give and a minor is not legally allowed to give.

>Then there are those folks who think a man can have many wives.

If marriage is a fundamental right as opposed to a privilege I can see this argument coming up in the future based on the 1st and 14th amendments.

>Why don't we ever see one woman marrying many men?

It's called Polyandry and is not an unheard of phenomenon.

>Words mean things, and marriage means a man and a woman....
