This is the fallacy at the heart of the gay marriage argument. First of all, gay couples are not being married in droves. The number, I believe, has been decreasing subsequently each year since the state recognized gay marriages.

This enforces a new norm upon a community which has traditionally proudly stood outside of the regular social norms.
