OUTspoken for Equality Applies for Marriage License
Just got word that Kitty Lambert from OUTspoken for Equality and her partner went to apply for a marriage license at City
Hall today, but, of course, were turned away. Kitty’s true message in this event was how ludicrous anti-Gay Marriage
laws are.
Now, I personally don’t know Kitty and her partner – we were only introduced
once or twice – but the message is clear. These two women love each other, have provided support and care to one another
and probably have a list of pet peeves the other does on a regular basis. Just like any other citizen of the State of New
York. But, Kitty
couldapply for a license with a young, Gay man she had just met, known to her only as “Ed,”
and they could live apart for the rest of their days.
Reminds me of the editorial cartoon we published here on the 5th.
And, it makes no sense. We have a lot to learn about all sides and forces on Gay
Marriage. Keep watching for more articles from the fight for marriage rights throughout the nation during this important time
on LGBT History or click on to your favorite subject from our ‘Category’ and ‘Tags’ sections in the
