 I would totally have to agree.  The entire issue is about treating same sex couples the SAME as opposite sex couples.  Jurisdictions actually do no ""permit"" same sex marriage, as much as they stop refusing people of the same sex to marry.  The whole point is that there is no longer any difference between how the partners in the marriage are treated with regards to sex.  I think gender-neutral marriage or perhaps just ""Marriage"" would be better."
