Can anyone tell me why male on male relationships are not accepted by society and female on female sex is tolerated?

I am a gay male who has been in a relationship for the last 7 years with the same person. We are currently paying off a mortgage together and live like a "normal" defacto couple. So why the stigmata ?

Also why can we not get married and afforded the same reasonable rights as a heterosexual couple?

I understand the religious point of view, however I believe that if religion wants to outlaw gay marriage it should be made responsible for all records relating to marriage if the individual couple so wishes. It should be a matter of keeping state and religion free and separate of each other.

What are everyone else s thoughts?.
