Also, who's last name do they use, and what about their children's last name?
****Heteosexual couples have to work this out too.Do they pay alimony if they separate and are not the biological father or mother?
****Alimony is typically paid to the spouse after the divorce and is settled by the court. I think you are talking about child support, which is also something heteosexual couples that adopt children have to work out******The GLBT as a community do not generally want to settle "till death do us part" with one partner.
*****I think if that were true, then the whole gay marriage issue would not exist. ******
By extending marriage to their community won't help. I think we are opening up a can of worms, and once they escape they'll infect the whole society, like worms on the Internet, they spread their virus, shutting us down, whether we want their inflection or not. (Inflection: A turning or bending away from a course or position of alignment).****Infect with what? A departure from tradition? I think some traditions/alignements need changing****
