Oh, I am *so* in favor of same-sex marriage in all 50 states. I can definitely see how the case you mention in your last sentence would be frustrating and terrifying -- especially in the case where the parents/siblings/etc. have already disowned the gay person because of prejudice or whatever. (Sometimes people disown each other for reasons other than sexuality....)
I think the slogan "Civil marriage is a civil right" sums it up best.
