When discussing sexual behaviors, it is important to remember that there are many private things that are considered deviant and/or criminal. Private business has never just been private business. That applies to heterosexual activities and to many behaviors that were considered homosexual.
I do realize that. I was not going to muddy the waters of this conversation with all of the variants on sexual behaviors. Just trying to keep it simple.

So why is it okay for heterosexuals' private business to be public (marriage, in this instance) but not for homosexuals' private business (marriage, in this instance).
You answered this in your response below - the majority opinion is that the private business of a heterosexual couple can be "public". Afterall, many did not and some do not consider a marriage to be complete until it has been consumated. Preferably with proof.

If you think gay marriage is wrong, that's your business to think that. I used to think that and think that less and less as the years go on. But personal opinions that are majority opinions often translate into policies and laws---and people struggle to find reasons to justify their belief that something should remain illegal.
Or legal too.
