Oh I know Cynthia Tucker well enough. But she has seemed persuadable in the past. And she makes very excellent points re: marriage. I, myself, have seen a lot of drama, trauma, and misery caused by divorce and the "free love" mentality.
Too bad it's not free at all, and the children pay the price. It's nice to see someone advocate for it, and never mind her stated support for gay "marriage" she is a good enough writer, in this piece at least, to keep her comments parenthetical.
This is actually a very good column.
