I thought, naively it turns out, we might get to a point in my lifetime where we stop saying same-sex marriage. Where we just say marriage.
Where a qualifier that points out the sex of two people in a union is so utterly, preposterously unrelated to the spirit and beauty and point of that union that we’d eventually realize it’s the equivalent of putting air quotes around something and we’d stop saying it altogether.
Now I wonder if same-sex marriage will become outlawed in my lifetime.
