No it shouldn't, but you have to get permission from the governent to marry, which makes it a governmental issue. Therefore, who the licenses are issued to is a matter for the government, at least under current law, so the definitions are made by the government. Therefore the government is indeed discriminating against certain people as long as gays aren't allowed to marry.
Remove the government from the marriage business and gays will marry anyway. I don't see what the problem is.
