      Because nothing says “I love you” better than “I don’t really want to marry you”. Heterosexual couple win right to civil partnershiphttps://www.bbc.com/news/uk-44627990 …

      I think a civil partnership is all the nice things about being married with all the not so great things about getting married taken out. And why the hell not?

      traditions that sometimes doesn't treat people equally, sexist vows, bridesmaids, religion, more sexism - instead, straight people [if they want to] can now show the world they are a legally bound couple who love each other, without the suffocating nonsense.

      Traditions don’t mean modern marriage is bad. My marriage vows were equal on both sides, not sexist. Nothing to do with religion. Bridesmaids no different to Best Man and totally optional. Not suffocating at all. How bizarre!

          Some people - ie - people who are not you - don't agree with you. Some people find marriage ceremonies quite suffocating - isn't it nice that we now have a ceremony that suits some people better.

          Unfortunately I agree with JHB. A marriage ceremony can be whatever you want it to be. As can a marriage. My wife and I are completely equal, we didnt have anything religious, married in a registry office without bridesmaids or best man. No need for another option.

          If a marriage ceremony can be 'whatever you want' maybe that's part of the problem with it.

          Not sure I follow. Their argument was that marriage is religious and there are patriarchal connotations. But that's only true if that's what YOU make of YOUR marriage. Mine has neither. It's the people that are the problem, not the institution of marriage.

          Same here Julia. My vows were the same for me and my wife. She had 2 bridesmaids. My best man was a girl. Both me and my wife are atheist, so religion had no part. I also find all this bizarre.

          Twitter and social media in general have allowed the lunatic fringe to appear mainstream. Though generally harmful, its good in a way in that they can be exposed. Trouble is, they have excessive influence on social policy as they are obsessed in subverting society to their ends.

          You're wide of the mark here. It took me 2 seconds to say I love you will you marry me. It took me four years and £13,000 to get divorced.

          ....Current law discriminates. you can't have civil partnerships for Gay, lesbian, LGBT and then say 'normal' people (perhaps you can define Normal for us ?) can't have a civil partnership. it is just wrong to exclude. stuff god/religion and its institution of 'marriage'

          ps ... in your view are a trans woman and a trans man a 'heterosexual' couple? can they get 'married' in church when they're still 'male/female' but have swapped those roles...? Equal Civil Partnerships for all..
