Nevertheless, it’s interesting that the civil unions allowed to homosexuals are becoming increasingly popular with heterosexuals in France. The reason: you can get out of them without losing property or paying alimony. (These people are childless, obviously.) Thus to the conservative "fear" that gay marriage would undermine traditional marriage. The civil union alternative, at least in France, is already undermining traditional marriage. Me, I still can’t get exercised over the gay marriage issue. Even if most of them married and divorced monthly, they’d only match what heterosexuals already are doing.
