Sadly for you, the 14th Amendment prevents the law from treating some marriages unequal to others.I just call it natural marriage, or true marriage, or something.Can't use that. That doesn't sound superior than "marriage."I think they call it “hitched”Then come up with a new name for marriage for straight couples. What are ya gonna call it?Correct, but given that only straight couples can actually marry to begin with, then what needs to be done is just create a superior title affirming that straight-only marriage is the only "real" marriage, and that marriage which includes homo "couples" is merely an inferior from of union.The right to marry is a constitutionally recognized right. Creating an imaginary 'super marriage' for the express purpose of excluding gays seems unlikely to pass constitutional muster.
Saying that a homo couple can marry is silly, since that would be like saying that two light sockets, or that two electrical plugs can "couple together" - when in reality of course, only a plug can "couple" or marry with a socket.
Unification's gonna have to do better than that.
Not important, but point is it give special benefits to people who choose to have straight marriages which lead to healthly procreation.
So you're stuck with just the name. Those don't grab me personally, you'll have to do better than that if you want it to catch on.
