This can be addressed. Something can be done. Just because you don’t see the future right now doesn’t mean you never will or that the future doesn’t exist for you. The very fact that you recognize that there’s something to see but you’re just not able to see it right now might mean that you were able to see it once before. It might not be the same future that you envisioned when you were younger, but it still belongs to you.
The future is yours. It won’t be perfect and it won’t be easy, but it has never left you. Never let it.

The evidence shows that the movement of marriage away from a gendered institution and toward an institution free from state-mandated gender roles reflects an evolution in the understanding of gender rather than a change in marriage. The evidence did not show any historical purpose for excluding same-sex couples from marriage, as states have never required spouses to have an ability or willingness to procreate in order to marry. Rather, the exclusion exists as an artifact of a time when the genders were seen as having distinct roles in society and in marriage. That time has passed.
