If the definition of marriage is broadened on the basis of human rights, wouldn't it be a violation of human rights if, for example, two women and one man or two men and one woman want to be married?

"Human rights" is a BS claim of judicial activists.

The number 2 doesn't discriminate against any one citizen or group of citizens - the limit of two people per contract is applied evenly for all. Here, in the case of gay marriage, the law treats men one way and women another way, creating classes of citizens - a very blatant violation of Equal Protection.

Good point and some food for thought.
