Summary

This quote highlights the disapproval or dismissal that mainstream politicians have faced whenever they bring up the topic of marriage in the political arena. It suggests that discussing marriage within the realm of politics has not been embraced by the political establishment.

Hence, politicians who broach this topic have often faced resistance or criticism.
