Abstract

same-sex marriage, the notion that two members of the same gender can be joined in a legally recognized union that is the civic basis of marriage, is a hot topic in the United States. The dispute over same-sex marriage has raged for years; the debate reached a fevered pitch after the 2004 presidential election, when "voters in 11 states approved constitutional amendments [...] limiting marriage to one man and one woman." Four years later, the discourse that proponents and opponents of same-sex marriage employ has changed very little.
