I heard a funny story on the news a few weeks ago where a Gay couple got married in Canada and now wanted a divorce. I think they lived in Ohio but I am not sure. The law in Ohio recognized marriages from other juristictions including Canada so they were considered legally married in Ohio but the judge wouldn't grant them a divorce under Ohio law because the divorce law only applied to a man and a women and the judge didn't want to legislate from the bench. They then tried to get a divorce in Canada but Ontario law states that you have to live in Ontario six months before getting a divorce.
So if SSM is a hot issue will SS divorce be worse?
