Spiff - The irony of this is, this may actually lead to some real reform in the way moneys are handled in the government.
For example, in the current system, moneys are passed to one's spouse with no estate taxes.
There will be a day when the multibillionaires figure out a way around estate taxes through this little loophole.
And I understand your wanting to be equal - but the mere categorizing this as "gay marriage" sounds a lot like the "separate but equal" laws of the past.
Until we as a society desire real freedom for everybody, these types of laws will be used to further make distinctions on societal groups.
