Nothing against gays at all, and this stupid Prop 8 should have been overturned a long time ago.... but how come the unmarried straight people still get fucked?

I so deeply agree with you on this. I've had pals who were casually dating someone get full corporate health insurance benefits and keep them even after they totally broke up, because there isn't any system like divorce to make a breakup official. I mean, good for my pals, but that is so obviously just one more reason to have equal marriage rights for everyone.
I really think future generations are going to look at this brouhaha like ours looks at the old miscegenation laws of a generation or two ago.
