A persuasive argument for how, and why, the law should equalize the legal status of all families. Polikoff argues that marriage should not bestow special legal privileges because many people, both straight and LGBT, exist in many different types of families, and in relationships of economic and emotional interdependence, without being married, and that the law should recognize the equal worth of all familes.
