The sanctity of marriage

http://www.komotv.com/stories/30719.htm

Quote:
"I said, 'I'm a gay man. Amy and I don't live together, we don't love each other, we don't want to have babies, I have a partner at home and a kid, can Amy and I get a marriage license even though you know it's a sham, a joke and we are not serious about each other?' The clerk said, 'Yes, of course because you are a man and a woman,'"
I'm not sure what kind of institution anti-gay marriage people are trying to preserve, given the disregard many people and, indeed, the law, has for any so-called "sanctity" in marriage. As long as heterosexuals so dishonor marriage and the law doesn't require anything more than the required genitals, and in some cases a blood test, what is being preserved? Why is the only thing the majority of the country REALLY seems to value about marriage is that it involves only a man and a woman?
