I'm not, by any stretch of terms, saying that same-sex rights in this nation have not come a very long way, just in this last year. What I am saying is that there is a drastically different definition in the right to marry and having equal rights. I don't know about anyone else but I feel it is just as important, if not more important, to be able to get a job and not loose it because I work for a company with "christian values" that view my lifestyle as negative. As much as we have gained, we have not gained enough to feel secure in LIVING.
