Oh, jesus, my dear there're so many loopholes in the US legal system, it's like swiss cheese! Besides, the measure BARELY passed. That sets it up for contention right there. There's about a zillion ways the law can be challenged, have holes poked into it, etc, etc.
Wait for Arnie to get kicked out of office, and the O-man in the head seat, you'll see the measure pass...Now the measures in the other states...maybe not so much.
Having lived in many, the generality dictates that the populace are generally bible-thumping, sexually conservative ignoramuses. Keep in mind, in the US, sex education is something parents insist they'll teach their kids about, however when it comes down to it, they know as much as a pile of leaves...and if it's a topic that's seen as taboo, it's not even discussed and usually has a number of 'if I ever hear of you doing that' threats mixed in there, charging a young rebellious teen to want to do it just cause.
Anyway...Canada did the smart thing and saved itself a lot of stupidity and hassle and just legalized gay marriage. Someday we'll stop acting like a thirty year old still in it's rebellious I know everything teenage phase and get on with worrying about human rights.
