Straight or gay, couples shouldnt have any more rights or penalties then gay or straight single citizens.

It is not about MORE ....it is about DIFFERENT.

When two people marry they acquire DIFFERENT rights and obligations than a single person.

If you don't want those DIFFERENT rights and obligations it is very simple.

Don't get married.

But don't deny those DIFFERENT rights and obligations to others who do want them.

I am curious Karen. How does your post explain things differently?

(Other than blue doesn't do <<roll eyes>> at you....)

I think it is important to understand there are obligations that go with marriage as well as benefits. I am responsible for the debts my husband incurs for example.
