A brilliantly-directed short from Australia, calling for an end to marriage discrimination against gay couples. It follows a gay couple from their first meeting, and then through all the joys, sorrows and tribulations that culminate in the decision to marry.
Spoiler Alert: gay relationships are not any different from heterosexual relationships.

Bilerico reports that an Indiana coroner cited DOMA in his refusal to release the body of Christina Santiago to her lesbian partner. Santiago was one of five killed at Saturday’s stage collapse at the Indiana State fair.
It is situations like this that really shed light on how important ‘gay rights’ are.
DOMA creates another manifest injustice. Just like this one. And this one. And this one. And this one. And this one. And this one. And this one. And this one.
i didn’t realize DOMA actually passed. fuck. fuck it all.
