"Much as I think gays should have the same rights as heterosexuals, I want something better for the world than marriage. I would like to reach for something higher. We need ritual for sure, we want ways
to honor extended family, family of choice, commitment to love and union, but I don't really want to see it fashioned after marriage that has traditionally been about ownership of property and children." So says singer
Holly Near in an interview with Atlanta's
Etcetera magazine. She might have added that all the benefits extended married people (health insurance, etc.) would still be unfair to many unmarried folks even if fags and dykes
are allowed aboard the monogamy gravy train. Still, Holly is light years ahead of our political "leaders."
