. . . really? No one? That's hard to believe given this thread is 115 pages and 1713 post long . . . .
Homosexuals should get married for all the same reasons that heterosexuals get married (love, companionship, etc.) . . . and not one of those reasons has anything to do with children either . . . .

. . . as has been pointed out to you on numerous occasions . . . having children is usually LAST on the list for couples getting married.
. . . I've done some checking . . . getting married isn't a requirement for having children OR raising a family.
. . . please, please don't have children chrys . . . for the love of god . . . don't EVER have children . . . . . . one person even remotely like you in the world is one too many.

Sorry couldn't resist but my father once told me that children are a side effect of sex and not the driving purpose for it.
Sex brings two married people closer together and can be and should be a fun and fulfilling experience, I really hope though that no one is getting married just so that they can have sex.
Then again sometimes your posts are a little difficult to interpret Chrys.

the purpose of sex is procreation
the purpose of its pleasure is to make sure you do it
