actually they are not. Given the high breakup rate for homosexuals and the fact that they are in relationships for less than a two years, there is very little for lawyers to consider. The real issue and bigger payoffs for lawyers in divorce is when children are involved, not an issue with homosexuals, and when there is long term and substantial monies.

A homosexual marriage can be dissolve with a do it yourself kit from office depot.

The real issue for homosexuals, and homosexual lawyers, is the legitimacy that a homosexual divoce degree gives to the marriage.

Lamda legal is going to have cross state divorces in order to impose homosexual marriage recognition on other states.

This is a good time to support and push the FMA. The federal marriage amendment says what marriage IS. The FMA also prohibits any other polygamy, incest, or non-sentient marriage. It is not anti-homosexual, it is pro-children.

Not that the heterosexual community has been any great steward or custodian of marriage, but I expect the same sex community to enjoy the same 50% divorce statistic over 20 years.

Your Office Depot theory is bunk. You are assuming that both partners amicably dissolve the marriage with no claim to marital assets?

BWHAAAHHHAAAAA!

Since when? They are already having custody disputes. How about the two women who just split. The genetic mom (whose eggs were inplanted in the partner) lost the kid. Don't say it's not an issue. It certainly is an issue.

What good is an FMA going to do? We are where we are because lawyers, particularly judges, are ignoring the Constitution now. Another amendment will mean nothing to those numbskulls.
