My wife and I have the ability to reproduce, but not the desire. Again, I ask if you would wish to see our marriage invalidated because it doesn't conform to your notion that it's an institution that exists solely for child-raising?

Maybe there is a solution in there that works for everybody.
Sure: any pair of consenting adults has the right to marry. It works for everybody: heterosexual couples who want children, heterosexual couples who don't want (or can't have) children, homosexual couples who want children, and homsexual couples who don't want children. Perfect!
