This movie might make people think that domestic partnerships offer all the same benefits as marriage, and that's just not true. If someone is in a gay relationship and dies, the family can contest the will, even though the family has treated them like crap, and take away the money from the partner who has been there with them. That's sickening. You can disown your child for being gay, and then when they die, take all their money from the one person who dared love them for who they are. :puke:

Gays have nowhere near the same rights as a married couple. I really think this should change. I mean, isn't it "all men are created equal"? So why don't gays have equal rights?
