Ake sez:

    At the moment, under the law, Heterosexuals are discriminated against under the law as opposed to homosexuals.
    Homosexuals can be "married", single, or in a civil union.
    Heterosexuals can only be married or single.



Not so, Ake. You, too, can have a civil union with a man. Go for it.

Or go to Isle of Man, Joe

I'm not sure it's relevant that some, including me, have more traditional views over marriage. It seems that some hetrosexual couple themselves would make this choice and view it as progressive.
