It is perfectly possible to object to the linguistic innovation which is involved in redefining marriage to cover a wider range of relationships, without this implying any hostility towards people in single-sex unions. And there are in fact some people in such unions who see the development as a message that they need to assimilate in order to be accepted - which would appear to be the view of SJL's aunt - "She said she is not different to be the same as everyone else."

The world is complicated.
