Just to note, when we were campaigning against the ban gay marriage initiative here in Oregon (my stupid fucking state voted in favor of it, but thank goodness, not my county so I can still respect my city), we always said gay marriage. Straight up, as it were. :) I've never heard the term equality marriage and everyone at Basic Rights Oregon doing the organizing used gay marriage as well. (go BRO!)

and we would be a civil union state if not for some dickwad judge and some asshole group and it is all very frustrating.
