I Do.
2 Words.
With those two words married couples have access to 1138 rights. 1138 federal rights, protections and benefits guaranteed by marriage in the United States. 1138 federal rights, protections and benefits denied to MILLIONS of loving couples for no other reason than their sexual orientation.
Why are we still debating this? If you're straight and reading this wondering why I'm asking - ask yourself this: why did I get married? You got married (hopefully) because you were in love with your spouse and wanted to be legally joined. Do you think those of us that are GLBT want anything different?
You got married, said those two words, and were a legally wed couple. You did not say those two words and have to sign hundreds of pages of documents in the presence of lawyers to have equal access to your spouse.
1138. Why are we still debating love?
