Our history and in our mythologies, there is no instance where two people of the same sex married and lived together. Even extra matrimonial sex had been there but that too was between the opposite sexes. So if this system had been accepted in all generations and even amongst the animals and birds, none from us should say that people from the same sex group can marry and live. Marriage means something beyond friendship simple and it should be allowed to remain beyond friendship which could be between the same sex. Marriage between the same sex is beyond nature and nothing beyond nature should be allowed to practice.
