When this subject comes up in conversation, I find that most people who are against gay marriage are mostly just hung up on the definition of the word "marriage" and don't usually have any problem with people being gay or living together in civil union, but think that "marriage" is reserved solely for a man and a woman.
Sure it's not always the case, but that's pretty much what I've taken away from most of the opponents of gay marriage I've encountered.
