Altering your database schema to accommodate gay marriage can be easy or difficult depending on how smart you were when you originally set up your system to accommodate heterosexuality only. Let's begin.
i've never seen any system that has anything like the silly schemas presented. government systems + retail banking systems have had to deal with transgender and other more difficult things for years anyway. the people who make these systems don't care -- they represent it in the most flexible way possible. so, the argument is really a philosophical rant hidden behind a set of silly straw man arguments.
