Yeah, that's how it works atm in Finland and it haven't developed into being demeaning, atleast yet, but it has sort of second class ring to it: "registered". "I got an invitation to registering party!" Huh?? Pretty romantic, nooot. I think they have the same right to act stupidly about gigantic princess or prince weddings with all the traditions and marryment involved with it and not forgetting the romantic part stressing the eternal love, even if this day and age it has been in somewhat downward course in the society.
And the thing is: Heterosexuals can't get registered, they are always married. So cut the crap about religious shit. I am an agnostic and don't belong to any religion or church, but if I marry a man, I get married. If I marry a woman, I get registered. If this is not a clear sign of what is considered normal than what is.
