Have you always supported/opposed gay marriage or have you changed your mind?

Always supported it. It got legalized here when I was a kid and I can't remember that, since I was hardly politically aware by then, so I have always considered it something normal. Of course I have become quite conservative and I know many people who are vehemently opposed to same-sex marriage, but I don't believe they will ever convince me that the government should treat gay people differently than straight people. But I think my attitude toward this is very much influenced by the country in which I grew up. The entire same-sex marriage debate makes me feel extremely Dutch. Actually I'm quite proud that the Netherlands legalized it as the first country.
