From an anti-authoritarian queer perspective rights and the governments that give us them are not something to strive for. Marriage can be seen as a apparatus of assimilation and control, because it is through it that the state and morality validates our most personal relationships.
The heart of the ban of gay marriage is not marriage, but the perpetuation of social and moral hierarchy. What the right does not understand is that social hierarchy maintained by a strictly religious morality is less and less relevant. Perhaps the resurgence, or last dieing gasp, of evangelism is evidence of this.
