Time to End Lavaliering?

TJ Sullivan, who I'm sure many of you know, had a very interesting blog post the other day. It was brought to my attention by one of my brothers.

Quote:
I’ve been asked several times in the last year how I feel about fraternity men “lavaliering” (is that even a word?) their same sex significant others. As a well-known gay fraternity man, I guess people want to know my opinion. If we have ceremonies where brothers declare their love for women, give them gifts with their letters, then wouldn’t fairness dictate that these same traditions be encouraged for gay brothers?
The rest of the article is here:

Where do y'all come down on the traditions of lavaliering? And how about badge wearing? In my fraternity, the fiancée (I'm thinking not fiancé), wife (not husband), mother and daughter can wear the badge. Is this something which needs to be rethought?
