Gay Marriage, or just Marriage?

Most people refer to the marriage between two people of the same sex as gay marriage. This is just another way to separate the people deemed different from society from the people deemed normal to society. The only way that us, as a society, will be able to move on from the whole gay marriage argument is if we stop thinking about it as something different than normal, stop calling it gay marriage and just call it marriage! You wouldn't go up to someone and say, "hi I'm straight Steve." You would say, "Hi I'm Steve." There is no reason as to why we should have to call any union gay. Or should we start calling the marriage between two straight people straight marriage? No, right? That seems ridiculous. So think about that next time you hear or see something about gay marriage.
