I think this is an excellent ruling.


In the latest ruling to recognize rights of same-sex couples, the California Supreme Court has said gay and lesbian couples who raise children are lawful parents and must provide for their children if they break up.

But Justice Carlos Moreno, writing for the 4-2 majority, said a woman who supplies eggs to help impregnate her lesbian partner, with the understanding the child will be raised in their home, cannot evade her responsibility to that child.

With rights come responsibilities. Bring 'em both on baby!

Hey, rock on! The more responsibilities are recognized, the harder it'll be to deny rights! That's how 18-year olds got the vote!
