That is a crazy tough situation, OP, and I'm so sorry that you feel so conflicted about it. I have not read Ender's Game but I know a little about the author controversy, and I had a thought: From what little research I've done, it seems like the series isn't dystopian or heavy on morality issues besides the morality of children involved in violence (?). If you wanted to, you could very well believe that this is a world where gay marriage already exists. The point would be moot.

I mean, you have books like The Handmaid's Tale where social politics and interpersonal relationships are featured very heavily as cultural changes in the world that is built. The story is based on the way the culture views men, women, and sex. But Ender's Game, as a military sci-fi children's novel, probably doesn't take that into consideration, at least not as a main plot point. So if everything went along as it is now, gay marriage (in many countries) would probably not be an issue, and folks like OSC would have very little influence.

But if I'm wrong, totally ignore me. I'm a student studying lit and I'm really interested in the way sci-fi mirrors our society, but since I haven't read the book, I could totally be talking out of my ass here.

Edit: So I'm a massive dork, because I guess Card addressed this already, but he certainly doesn't see it as a solution. Now I'm just confused by this guy.
