There is one argument I seem to keep hearing this over and over from opponents gay marriage, and it really bothers me. It is that allowing gay marriage is a "gateway" into beastiality marriages. Like a man marrying another man is in anyway comparable to a man marrying a dog.
That is ridiculous, since animals obviously can't consent to marriage or sign a legal document. Also, making the comparison of gay people to animals is another tactic of right wingers to dehumanize homosexuals.
