Coupling?

I don't often pay attention to what an Anglican archbishop says, but Pete Jensen hit the mark in the Sydney Morning Herald:

This week he continued to argue forcefully that gay marriage was an impossibility because ''marriage requires a sexual consummation, and that is what men and women do.''
''How do two men have sexual union?'' he shoots back, when challenged on the definition of consummation. ''You have joined a couple of people together at a spot where they shouldn't be joined together, really.''

Exactly right: there is no 'coupling' between members of the same sex, all they can do is juxtapose, not form a sexual union at all: nothing is 'united': so it's not really 'sex' just a weird and unproductive game played with particular organs: I can't see the point,  myself. So whatever, its not marriage, which involves sexual coupling, but a weak joke.
