In my experience, someone who claims to be in the middle is actually on the right but has miraculously realized that makes them an asshole in today’s political climate so they pretend to be “in the middle”.
Honestly, I say split marriage up into a government contract that has all the benefits for everyone, don’t call it marriage but call it something else. THEN, deem “Marriage” a purely theatrical thing that anyone can hold a ceremony for and let that be the end of it. Get rid of the “you have to be in love” requirement, and just call it a day.

You and every other extremist have this same viewpoint.
As fellow an enlightened centrist myself, I often recommend the compromise of letting gays marry, but taking away their voting right.
Yet, the liberals are outraged by this idea, unwilling to meet in the middle.
So who’s the radical now?
