It's wedding season and, since the passage of marriage equality in 2015, more than a million gay people have tied the knot. But some of us are steering clear of the altar, and tired to having explain why.

Maybe you're not ready, maybe you're not interested, or maybe there's no one to marry. Whether you're single or living in sin, we've got you covered with these convenient (if not entirely credulous) explanations.

Your ideological stance.

You refuse to get married until gay couples around the world are guaranteed the right to register at Nasty Pig.

Location, location, location.

Much to your mother's dismay, your dream destination is a castle on a remote island that emerges from the sea once every seven years.

You're focusing on your career.

You can't be part of a power couple without the power—even if you are a power bottom.

You want to meet your future husband on a reality dating show.

When is Finding Prince Charming coming back, anyway?

You're waiting for a homophobic relative to die.

Everyone knows Aunt Edna couldn't handle a gay wedding in the family. You're just being considerate!

The stress of planning the reception.

He wants Patrick Stewart to give the best man toast. You insist on Carly Rae Jepsen singing the first dance song live. Let's call the whole thing off!

It's just too trendy.

The classic hipster excuse: You used to want to get married before everybody started doing it.

You can't fit into your tux yet.

But there's hope: One good head cold and you should be at your ideal weight.

Your hyphenated last name sounds terrible.

You are cordially invited to the Little-Johnson wedding. Just no.

You already share a Netflix password.

If not judging your partner for binge-watching all of Pretty Little Liars  isn't a true sign of commitment, I don't know what is.

You're already married...
