As the title states, "same sex couple banned...." That is banned. The couple was banned.
Whether or not it was fair for her to have to make that choice is THE point of the entire story. So...yeah........
As for Elephant Walk's post, I don't know where "exciting" came from and why such topics receive such a response from some people. Members of minority groups (which includes same sex couples) do not sit around thinking about oppression and jumping on every single mistreatment and discrimination. But whether they do or do not is up to them. It is not up to members of the majority in power to instill their privilege and give the whole "life happens...roll with the punches and see which you can't ignore" speech. That assumes that members of the minority aren't ALREADY rolling with the punches and only speaking out about things that they absolutely can't ignore.
