116. When my son got married, several of his and his fiancee's gay friends
got a little upset that they were marrying when gay couples couldn't. This was before MA and CT legalized gay marriages. The solution was for them to go to Canada to be married. It was a way of showing consideration of the feelings of gay couples but also being married (she was more strongly in favor of a marriage than my son but he felt that when they had kids it would be easier if they were married). It was a bit of a sticky wicket tho at the time.

Of course, today they could just come to CT, which I would have loved!
