Believing that same-sex marriage shouldn’t be a government-supported institution isn’t the same as believing LGBT people are “invalid” or “wrong” or whatever.

How is it not?

we should replace it with a series of contracts that grant certain legal privileges

I mean, legally, that’s what marriage is.

you may want to join finances w/ someone, but not give them hospital visitation rights

You don’t have to do either of those things just because you’re married. Marriage just gives you the option.

For example, they could partner w/ someone like Axate

And what would they bring to this partnership?

And if that applies to you, you should be very careful about the tools you use.

You should be. But companies also should not be creating tools that propose to give you those protections when they’re not smart enough to. Just leave it to the professionals.

I wouldn’t be surprised if GabeN’s personal politics were quite conservative

As long as he keeps his mouth shut about them and doesn’t financially support them, he’s doing worlds better than Mr. Eich.
