But that is circular logic. If desiring sexual satisfaction is bad, then the purpose of marriage would be to produce children.

You're jumping to a conclusion that I never stated. The purpose of marriage is to express romantic love, the ultimate product of which is sexual relations. Even if it's wrong to want to indulge your own desires, it's not wrong to satisfy the person you love romantically.

And what if two people of the same sex love each other romantically?

I'm curious as to your stance on trans people engaging in sexual activity? Assuming you think homosexual activity is a sin, it would seem that the only solution would be for trans people to be celibate (as many churches recommend LGB people be,) but I'd be interested to know your thoughts.
That I'm not sure about, but I lean towards accepting sexual activity by trans people as long as it isn't sodomy.
