Way to miss the point...
How is the birth relevant to the household a child grows up in?

I think you missed the point ...
If marriage is about providing the best outcomes for children doesn't it have to be proven that gay couples can provide similar or better outcomes for children before you claim that they can be married?

What would make a Homosexual couple less equipped to raise a child than a straight couple? Also, what if a Married couple decides not to have children? Why do children have to be the driving force of a marriage? And most importantly, Who are you, or I, or anybody to say that two adults who love each other can't get married because we're unsure of how they'll be as parents? There are plenty of crappy straight parents.

Marriage is a social structure that has existed for tens of thousands of years with its primary purpose being pro-creation.
What gives you the right to change that definition because a few people want to hold a fancy party to celebrate their love?

The same thing that gives a couple the right to get married and NOT have kids. Should people only be allowed to marry if they are going to have kids? What's the difference between a straight couple getting married and not having kids and a gay couple doing the same?
