I feel that gay people not being able to get married for generations, forever, meant that we came up with alternative ways of recognizing relationships. I worry that if everybody has access to the same institutions that we lose the creativity of subcultures having to make it on their own. And I like gay culture.
-Rachel Maddow is worried that marriage will turn Gay America into a Land’s End catalog.
She’s not the first. Marriage equality is an obvious civil rights issue (burn, DOMA, burn), but what will it do to queer culture?
