'''Same-sex marriage''' is the term for a legal arrangement which mimics [[marriage]], except that the partners are of the same gender: e.g., two men, or two women. Although the [[gay rights movement]] promotes the arrangement as a [[civil rights]] issue, conservatives believe the actual intention is to destroy the institution of marriage altogether.
