Sounds like the actuary would oppose or support the marriage itself, not the type of marriage, and base his conclusion on variables independent of spousal gender. Presumably, Mr. Insurance would reach the same conclusion if he approached the situation gender-blind. Doesn't sound like homophobia, just good ol' fashioned bean-counting, right?
