New York's Governor says he is preparing to introduce a same-sex
marriage bill into the state legislature in the coming weeks. I support
equality for all people regardless of gender or number of partners. I
have serious reservations about reinforcing marriage as the
qualification for receiving all manner of state-sponsored rights,
benefits, and considerations. At the same time, for now marriage is
that qualification, and everyone should have access to it. So, is the
next step to push for recognition of polyamorous marriage, or is the
next step to begin the undermining of marriage as a core civil
institution?
