Absolutely correct! I found it interesting to notice today that Rosie O'Donnell said she and her partner petitioned for spousal priviledge during her legal actions against the "Rosie Magazine" episode and were denied it because they could not legally marry. As a result, the opposing litigant had full access to Rosie's partner, Kelly Carpenter, and all correspondence and private communications that would normally be excluded in a "married" couple....all because they are a homosexual couple. Where is the fairness and equitable status for all in the legal system with that happening? Because they are gay, they are required to do what a "normal married couple" does not have to do.

Ugh.
They are not fighting for civil unions with "privileges", this is marriage. It is not just about legalities.
