For lesbians it's even easier! Get a sperm donor! Then ta-da, that lesbian couple has a child.

I have a client at work whose daughter is dying, and her partner is scrambling because the children are biologically not hers, and if her wife dies, those children go into foster care.

Explain to me how that's fair?

And then, while you're at it, explain to me why those who clamor on about the "sanctity of marriage" aren't protesting outside the offices of divorce lawyers, who are not only assisting in the breakdown of marriages, but they're also profiting huge amounts of money to do so.

If it was about sanctity of marriage, truly, there wouldn't be such a laissez faire take on divorce in this country.
