Inhalt
Nancy Polikoff asserts that, in American law, marriage is the dividing line between those relationships that matter and those that don't. A woman married to a man for 9 months receives Social Security benefits when he dies. A woman living for 19 years with a man or woman to whom she isn't married receives no government support. This book reframes the family-rights debate by arguing that marriage should not bestow special legal privileges upon couples because people, both heterosexual and LGBT, live in a variety of relationships - including unmarried couples of any sexual orientation, single-parent households, extended biological family units, and many other familial configurations. These relationships, like marriage, are about building and sustaining economic and emotional interdependence and nurturing the next generation. Polikoff shows how the law can value all families, and why it must.
