Question of the day: The unanswerable question

Managing perpetuation of the species is a problem for all civil societies. In the most of the World this has been done via an institution called marriage which in our Western heritage means one man bonded with one women for the purpose of conceiving and raising children.

It has been this way for well over 2000 years with minor variations in form.

For some reason it is now considered unfair or something that men cannot marry other men or women marry other women.

It is a matter of "rights" we are earnestly informed but nobody can actually articulate what these "rights" might be.

So
In what way are anybody's rights being denied by restricting marriage to people who are mutually procreative?
