It does not matter if everyone is denied the liberty to marry on the basis of gender. This does not change the fact marriage is still predicated upon "gender." All you do with the above remark is confirm marriage is based on gender.
The fact all people cannot marry someone on the basis of gender does not mean discrimination is not taking place. Think about it. Discrimination is still ocurring. Do marriages still occur? Yes. Is some group of the populace not allowed to marry? Yes. What is the basis for not allowing this group to marry? The gender of the person they wish to marry. Hence, we still have discrimination on the basis of gender and the fact ALL people cannot marry someone of the same sex does not change the fact the basis for treating them differently is the SEX/GENDER of the partner.
