GC, there is a difference between what you are talking about - benefits to domestic partners - and marriage.

Being not gay, I don't know, so this isn't meant to be rhetorical at all.....aren't domestic partner benefits pretty common now - probably the norm, at least among larger corporations?

Sceagles, larger corporations, I think some, yes. But on a state by state basis, not at all. Don't laugh, NC, to name one. I know because one of my dearest friends and her partner do not have a law on the books for benefits for domestic partners.

I need to check LAMBDA and GLAAD

You didn't answer my question. Would you stay at that company?

With the Federal Marriage Amendment Palin supports it all goes away.

When I signed up for a Domestic Partnership with Ralphie, the government taxed him for it. The benefits that I was allotted were considered additional income for Ralphie. It's not the same thing as a marriage recognized by the government, there are rights you and your wife enjoy that JWBear and his partner can't.
