Gay Couples Split After Court Annuls Marriages by Scott Ott (2004-08-12) -- In the wake of a California Supreme Court decision to annul 4,000 homosexual marriage licenses granted in San Francisco early this year, realtors in California have been flooded with calls from people looking for new homes. "My gay clients are desperately seeking separate living quarters," said one unnamed realtor. "Now that the sacred bond of matrimony has been broken by the state, they want to protect their reputations as moral citizens by living separately. None of them want to be seen as 'shacking up' or engaging in extramarital physical intimacy." The realtor said that the word 'marriage' has "deep meaning to these folks, and they're moving apart to protect this institution which is the bedrock of our society. They're committed to avoiding even a hint of immorality." Donate | More Satire | Printer-Friendly | |
