Nor should it be. Nor should it be defined by law, unless that law fully and completely specifies the nature of the contract. What is protected by the Constitution is our right to live our lives the way we see fit, as long as it doesn't harm anyone else. The sole purpose of the "definition" in this case is to prevent one segment of the population from partaking in what the population as a whole considers to be an important part of life. It is indeed tyrrany of the masses.

Speaking of definitions, you haven't answered my question.
