YOU are the one who keeps using the term "marriage equality," and you clearly have a specific definition in mind, along the lines of ANYONE can marry ANYONE. People who support gays and lesbians having the right to marry their gay or lesbian partner are NOT supporting ANYONE being able to marry ANYONE.
Marriage has limits now. Marriage will still have limits if gays and lesbians can marry each other. This ANYONE marrying ANYONE is your own ridiculous hyperbole.
What?!?!?! I never use the term "marriage equality" it's lazy and moronic. That term is the new pc buzzword for mindless sheep and is in several threads here and in the media. I am simply holding those who cite that term as their reason for supporting the redifintion of marriage accountable and saying that if they don't support polygamist marriage and consensual incest marriage than they are hypocrites. Again, this thread is specifically for those that cite "marriage equality" as their reason for supporting the redefinition of marriage. Eiither you believe in equality, or you do not. Defend you position.
Seriously? It's really simple and has been explained numerous times in this thread.
Ummm, no, it's not been EXPLAINED at all. You keep stomping your little foot and saying the same thing, with no logic or explanation.

If you support the redefining of marriage to include two dudes under the guise of "marriage equality" than you MUST support polygamist marriage and consensual incest marriage. Or you're a hypocrite. Either you support marriage equalitry, or you do not. I am holding you to your own standards. Defend you position.
Using your apparent definition, then, NO I am not in favor of marriage equality. OK? Good enough?
ALL that I am in favor of is for any two unrelated consenting adults to marry each other. That's it. Not THREE, not a GROUP, not BLOOD-RELATED.....because I don't believe in your farcical "definition" of EQUALITY. I admit that I pick and choose which people should be allowed to get married, just like YOU do SOPHIASMOMMY. I just happen to include gays and lesbians on my list.
This thread is specifically about consensual incest marriage and marriage equality. In the majority of states marriage is defined between a man and a woman. Those that wish to redefine marriage to include two dudes cite "marriage equality" as their reason. If equality is your reason than you MUST support consensual insest marriage. or you're a hypocrite. I am simply holding those people to their own standards.
Why am I a hypocrite? A woman married for 15 years receives more benefits than a gay cojuple than lives together for 30 years. How is that fair or equal?

It is quite simple. Treat everyone equally.
Black man = white man = black woman = white woman = Asian woman = Asian man = any man = any woman.
Hetero man can choose to marry a hetero woman, but a homosexual man or woman does not have that choice. Related people do not have a choice whether they are gay or straight. There would be hypocrisy if a related hetero couple could marry and a related homosexual couple could not, we prohibit both couplings regardless of sexual orientation.
...and if you correlate same sex marriage to incest...you must be a mindless nut. How many stupid threads with this insinuation do we have to see every week or so?!
No less absurd than two men or two women. Lol at two husbands or two wives.
Careful now, your mask is slipping. Opponents of equal marriage rights for same-sex couples are not supposed to admit that their opposition is based on anti-gay animus.
All of the proponents of redefining marriage cite "equality' as their reason. Okay, fine, but if equality is the reason than you must support concentual incest marriage, polygymist marriage and any other marriage between consenting adults. If you do not, you are a hypocrite.
So by your own logic, you support a father marrying his daughter ?

As opposed to the conservative hypocrisy of claiming to be for less government regulation except when more regulation changes something to suit their agenda?
