Today on BuzzFeed: 20 couples that put Kim Kardashian’s 72-day marriage to shame. Guess what? They’re all gay and unable to get legally married. Here are a couple of my favorites, and then click over for the rest:
“Ed Watson is 78 years old and has Alzheimer’s. He’s worried that by the time the court finally rules on Prop 8, he won’t be able to recognize Derence, his partner of over 40 years. They cannot get married, but Kim Kardashian can… for 72 days.”
“David and Michael Serkin-Poole have been together 25 years and together raised three developmentally disabled children. They cannot get married, but Kim Kardashian can… for 72 days.“
“Kathy Glass and Carmah Lawler have been together for over 30 years and are from Colorado. “Kathy has a way of being able to laugh at almost anything even though at our age there aren’t that many things to laugh about,” says Carmah. They cannot get married, but Kim Kardashian can… for 72 days.“
Yeah, please click over and read the rest. The people above are Public Enemy No. 1 for the Religious Right, and Kim Kardashian, by engaging in a traditional marriage (of 72 days) is their ally.
Moral high ground, anyone?
