If a man and a woman get married and, immediately following the words “I now pronounce you man and wife”, one of them drops dead, the survivor cannot claim the estate of the dead person because the wedding was never cosumated. How do two men married to each other or two women married to each other consumate their marriage, the men do not have vaginas and the women do not have penises. Look up the definition for consumate.

That may apply in yesterday world of reason and sanity, but not anymore...

Don't have the correct sexual organ that fits your "identity"...no problem...medical science has the solution...

I meant to add the application of the word “consummate” in marriage is relevant only to a religious marriage, not a civil one...
