In this, I agree with President Obama.
Obama told MTV he believes marriage is "between a man and a woman" and that he is "not in favor of gay marriage."
"I've stated my opposition to this. I think it's unnecessary," Obama told MTV. "I believe marriage is between a man and a woman. I am not in favor of gay marriage."

The debate over same-sex marriage may still be raging, but Hollywood is not short on advocates for its legalization.
Among the most vocal supporters of same-sex marriage are the stars of "The Kids Are Alright," a movie released two weeks ago centering around a same-sex couple. Julianne Moore and Annette Bening play a married lesbian couple with two kids, while Mark Ruffalo plays the family's sperm donor.
Ruffalo, who will play The Incredible Hulk in the upcoming "Avengers" movie, has been outspoken about his position on the issue. He said in a recent interview, "There’s a debate going on about gay marriage and whether children can be raised in an ‘unconventional’ family and go on to be sexually healthy, viable, productive people – that’s all used as an argument against gay marriage. It’s so ridiculous to me."
"It’s the last dying, kicking, screaming, caged animal response to a world that is changing," he explained, "a world that’s leaving a lot of those old, bigoted, un-accepting views behind. It’s over.”
Judging by the results of California's Proposition 8 battle in 2008, it's not over yet. But with increased interest in movies and television programs like "The Kids Are Alright" and "Modern Family," which portray same-sex families as healthy and responsible, Ruffalo's argument might hold some weight.
