Don't forget Arkansas, which passed laws against allowing non-married people from adopting. Conveniently, same-sex marriage is illegal there, so they don't have to worry about teh gheis teaching their children that it might be okay to be gay.
On the plus side, New York finally has a Democratic majority so this coming term there might be laws allowing same-sex marriage. Last time it was tried, the Republican-controlled State Senate killed the bill by not voting on it in time. We already recognize same-sex marriages performed elsewhere, which is good as three of our neighbors (two states and Canada) allow it.
