Form be damned, the state of California does not recognize same sex marriages. This is sortof like a newspaper columnist writing a note on the evils of murder, due to the perp using the wrong ammo to carry out the act.

Yes I recognize the gravity of the two subjects is different, but the underlying principle is the same. Illegal is illegal, despite our nation's not being able to understand the term any longer.

The entire city government is issuing invalid forms to unqualified couples.

Sounds like someone should go to jail for FRAUD!! =o)

Agreed. The "licenses" aren't worth the price of the paper they're printed on.

Illegal is illegal,

That depends on what the meaning of 'illegal' is...

If illegal is illegal, then it's legal...

Aside from the legal and moral aspects of this, a complete disservice has been done to gay couples here. In fact, I would go so far as to call what the Mayor of SF has done to these people completely cruel.

Are you saying that even if they consummated the marital union, they are still not "legally married"? And how do lesbians consummate the "marraige" by having intercourse?

Oral sex is not sex and therefore I can assume that intercourse is now not intercourse. Look it up in the dictionary. I can see a rewrite in the near future.

Geesh, how can I even approach the birds and the bees with my kids? These alternative lifestyle, politically correct times are difficult to navigate.
