I wonder why people are dragging their heels like that. From a detached perspective, it is obvious, to me at least, that gay couples *will* be entitled to the same benefits and status as straight couples. Eventually. And granted, it'll just be on paper at first. But it will happen.
I found that a professor of mine summed it up best... She said that people cling to things they know they are going to lose. This is why the British fought the industrial revolution to save the environment they previously cared little for, and why people now are telling us that marriage is a sacred sacred thing, and meant for only a man and a woman.
