Ægteskab

Vi har i Danmark haft vores hyr med striden om homoseksuelle skal have lov til at blive gift i kirken. I Canada er de nået et skridt videre:

Bill Dalrymple, 56, and best friend Bryan Pinn, 65, have decided to take the plunge and try out the new same-sex marriage legislation with a twist -- they're straight men.

"I think it's a hoot," Pinn said.

The proposal came last Monday on the patio of a Toronto bar amid shock and laughter from their friends. But the two -- both of whom were previously married and both of whom are still looking for a good woman to love -- insist that after the humour subsided, a real issue lies at the heart of it all.

"There are significant tax implications that we don't think the government has thought through," Pinn said.

Det er så hvad det er - personligt kan jeg ikke se hvorfor man skal have skattebegunstigelser bare fordi man bliver gift. Det skægge ved denne historie er imidlertid, at dem der er mest forargede over den er lige præcis den gruppe der har fået presset loven om registreret partnerskab igennem i Canada: de homoseksuelle.

Læs selv resten.
