If his point that "people who are simply living together can make whatever arrangements they want, whether they are heterosexual or homosexual" is valid, then why would anybody choose to get married? I still haven't heard a good explanation for that.

They want the 'rule set" of the state applied to their partnership. Then they don't have to draw up their own arrangements. But the key thing they want is the homosexual stigma removed. They want social acceptance.
