In New York, no marriage liscense, yer not married.
I wondered if it varied from state to state when I wrote that because I've heard things like, "In Texas, commonlaw marriage. . . ." I fully confess I was more focused on going for the joke part of it about it opening up the season for palimony lawsuits! My bad.
birdgirl73 Reviewed by birdgirl73 on . Bush calls for gay marriage ban Didn't he already try this shit before?? This is so unjust and unfair. This is one of the main reasons why I hate Bush! His intolerance and fakeness to please the Christian Right. What is Bush going to do next...ban owning Qur'ans? If you're gay, go get married in Canada. It seems Canada doesn't have its head up its ass like America does. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/5044428.stm US President George W Bush has called for a constitutional amendment to ban same-sex marriages.
