Wave of Same-Sex Divorce to Follow Flood of Marriages?

Following up on yesterday’s posting is this article, in today’s New York Post, (in which I was quoted).

The floodgates have opened; there will be thousands of same-sex marriages performed in California in the near future. In the aftermath, I anticipate a wave of same sex divorces.

At least, one court has already recognized the right of same sex couples to seek a divorce in New York.

 In order to avoid the pain of divorce, same-sex marriage couples should be urged to proceed with caution. As pointed out in the Post:

Fools rush in, they said, even gay fools.

"It's not a decision to rush into," said Jim Key, a spokesman for the LA Lesbian and Gay Center.

Same Sex Marriage - A Humorous View

In the past weeks, I have commented on the two recent court decisions regarding same sex marriage and same sex divorce divorce. I just saw a funny television commercial for the Broadway show, November regarding these very issues.

In ad, the President (Nathan Lane) is asked by his aide for his view on gay marriage. He answers:

Gays should be allowed to marry, but not to divorce . . . therefore gaining new liberty and all the suffering that comes from knowing that there is no way out.
