But those homosexuals weren't married according to law. We're not talking here about weddings, that's just a ceremony; we're talking about the legal bond of marriage. Why should a gay or lesbian be denied the same benefits, responsibilities and protections afforded heterosexuals, by law? There are over eleven hundred stipulations of the law which can be exercised by married couples which are denied unmarried gay and lesbian couples. That is invidious discrimination based in heterocentric dogma, plain and simple; it doesn't require any guessing.
