I think what he meant when he said that you lose certin rights is that you knew when you became gay that you would not be able to get the same benefits as a hetrosexual couple. You made that decision yourself. Roomates could go get married for the health insurance benefits(check out Chuck and Larry). I do not see the benefit to society in given them the right to wed. I see it more of a way for people to take advantage of the system.
