…,howwwwww?

Ok, here’s their reasoning. I looked it up.

Step 1: Legalize gay marriage. Tons of men marry each other.
Step 2: Woman becomes pregnant. There are not enough men to marry anymore, so…
Step 3: Woman gets abortion.

Ok, here are a few issues:

* It takes someone with working testes to help someone with ovaries create a baby. Theoretically, the person with the testes likes mashing them up against the person with the ovaries, and so theoretically, they might be a candidate for marriage.
* You do not need to be married to have a baby. You could get support from your family, or a platonic domestic buddy. 
* Straight people are not going to get gay married. It’s sad, but true. Only gay and bi people will get gay married. Gay men were never going to marry your hypothetically pregnant woman anyway. Bi men… might have? But are there going to be enough bi men getting gay married to create a deficit of straight-marriageable men that is not counteracted by the bi women getting lesbian married??? I do not think it’s a shortage of available men we’re looking at. Face it, I know like 2 bi men. Like half the women I know are at least somewhat sexually or romantically attracted to women. (Because women are awesome.) 
* BUT! A lesbian or bisexual woman might marry your hypothetical pregnant woman! That’s legal now! So you have your supportive family structure that you were looking for!
* How come we can’t share straight men if they come in short supply? I mean, he’s going to be a busy fella, but we’ll give him vitamins and we can keep ourselves busy with homosexual and homoromantic other relationships. *waits for the sound of conservative heads exploding.* 

Also if you are an embryo, abortion > growing up unwanted. 

If you are already here and you were unwanted, well, I want you now, you’ve got an invaluable place in the universe that no one else could fill, so it’s all good. But that’s because you’re you, the sum of all your experiences, a unique perspective on the universe. Back when you were an early-stage fetus, you were not you. You had never been before, could have become just about anyone, and so you were practically no one.  

That is so twisted and not connected in any way to how the real world works.
