My question is, for the purposes of marriage, is it the birth/natural parents who give consent or it be adoptive parents / legal guardian or something else?

It also seems you are making the theoretical perfect the enemy of the practical good? Even if as you claim, heterosexual monogamy has greater potential than homosexual monogamy. This claim is scientifically dubious though. It doesn't follow not to allow same sex marriage or same sex adoption. You seem to imply heterosexual monogamy has a monopoly on stability. You can't predict whether any given family will be stable or unstable based on such variables.
