(And I share them as the odd member of the heterosexual sector who has never been married even though I am in love and not only permitted to get married, but encouraged and even urged to get married . But unlike gay couples everywhere, who seem to be lusting and praying for marriage, I am  too chicken . I think this makes me the only single heterosexual monogamous female in a happy long term relationship who wishes that when they finally get around to giving gays the right to be legally married, as they surely will, that the same &#8221; they &#8221; would be willing to also agree to transfer the right to legal but unmarried partnership status via civil unions to heterosexuals so I could use it.) <a href='http://merrillmarkoe.com/566' rel="nofollow">Read more</a></p>]]></description>
