of course there are always exceptions to any rule. that doesn't mean that its a healthy thing for society as a whole to start making the exceptions the rule.
i personally have no stake in the argument and could care less if gay people get married or if gay marriage is outlawed. i am simply voicing my opinion and suggest that from an anthropological standpoint, there is a greater benefit to a society in strengthening and reinforcing the concept of a strong nuclear family than not.
life is not fair. the constitution or laws of man cannot make life fair. sometimes you get selected by nature to be the one who has to take one for the team (and sometimes from the top or bottom).
