The 'Full failth and credit' of the state is recognized even in places where that union would not be legal (age of conscent being the one that comes to mind).

So it simply can't work as a state by state proposition with an extreemly mobile population.

This answers what I've been wondering about since California first allowed and then rejected same sex marriage. As I understand it now there are some states in the U.S. that are proposing same sex marriage legislation or have allowed it.

I had been wondering what would happen if a same sex couple got married in a state that allowed it and then moved to a state that didn't allow it.

Also there are countries, Canada for example, that allows same sex marriage and I had been wondering whether or not a same sex marriage would still be recognized if a same sex couple moved to the U.S.
