A Prop 8 challenge for swankers

Lawrence v. Texas would be the most direct precedent. Beyond saying that there was no rational basis for criminalizing gay sex, the majority spoke at some length about the personal nature of the decision of whom to love. It would seem odd to say that the personal decision of whom to love is only respected to the extent that you can't be thrown in jail for it but that it does not extend to the stabilizing institution of marriage.
