Here is a link to a recent short piece by Virginia Postrel. My personal opinion, consistent with Virginia’s presentation, is that gay relationships are indeed an evolved part of a voluntary market order, and also deserving of various legal protections. A Hayekian therefore can without contradiction embrace the idea of gay marriage, although admittedly simply citing Hayek still leaves a number of gaps in the argument for legal gay marriage. See also Virginia’s longer piece on Hayek and the more general importance of his thought.
