I'm happy. This is a step in the right direction. How long do you think it will take until homosexuals have the same rights and benefits as heterosexual couples?

I'm not asserting a slippery slope argument against LGBT marriage (in fact, I don't see why it isn't recognized already), but what about when the polygamist community speaks out? Or adult/minor couples? Are we going to say that the limit is two consenting adults of 18 years or older (or emancipated minors)?
