Marriage is an ancient institution and in the west has meant the union of one man and one woman for at least 2000 years or so. There had never been racial restrictions on marriage in the west till the anti-miscegenation laws passed during the slavery era. Those laws were novel changes to an ancient institution and in that respect are similar to what liberals want to impose now. Those laws, in those states which had them, forbade people of different races from living together as man and wife. See Loving v VA - state officials arrested an inter-racial married couple for living together, sleeping together, and having married one another outside the state. No one and no law is preventing gay couples from doing any of those things.
