There are advantages to living in non-traditional families too, but what is the answer to my question? Is there a practical reason why we should deny gays and lesbians contracts that seek any of the above points? Sure, marriage isn't required to attain all of them, but they are reasons why people want to get married, gays and lesbians included.
