I've seen the argument that if gays simply have a different sexual orientation - so do pedophiles, so we should accept them all.
That argument is completely ignorant of the concept of "consent". Minors cannot consent to sex.
I've seen the argument that if we let the gays marry we have to allow polygamy, too.
Straight men who have multiple partners are still straight men - its the same sexual orientation. Disallowing polygamy doesn't discriminate based on sexual orientation or sex - its a restriction on the number of people you may marry at once, without regard to sex or sexual orientation - so the argument is void.
EDIT - laws which restrict you from marrying siblings and cousins - again - that has nothing to do with orientation or gender.
Now shut up you gay haters.
