Instead of digging around and reading a bunch of foolish websites, I'll summarize:
1) opponents of same-sex marriage said it would destroy marriages and families(it is indisputable that this was a prominent argument, I'm sure you will agree)
2) the only way for existing marriages and families to be destroyed by same-sex marriage would be for people in traditional marriages/families to get a divorce and marry someone of the same sex because the law was changed. In other words, same-sex marriage would become "popular" among some previously straight people and their marriages and families would be ruined.
EDIT: that's all from me. I'm on my way out to get drunk and hopefully meet some liberal minded ladies who want to practice polygamy for a few hours!
