"Concerned" "Women" "for America" give us the "Top 10 Reasons to
Support the Marriage Affirmation and Protection Amendment"

Ok it's american, but a similar debate is/was raging here. Nameley, same sex marriage.

I don't want marriage. Marriage is for straight couples. It's a religious-based ceremony (allright, so it doesn't have to be but was origionally) which is recognised by the state. I find all religion repugnant so thats more reason to not want it.

However should one choose to commit to ones partner it would be equitable to enjoy the benefits given to defacto relationships, which in the eyes of the state are marriage without the ticket.

All my relationships have been longish, the shortest being about eight months (I think). So yeah, theres evidence of commitment there.
