Maybe because a committed relationship, is not recognize as marriage. it may be an element of it but so is roommates living together or a friend with benefits....words like mostly aren't getting you all the way there either.




Yes, and it can't be legally recognized because it has not been legalized by any government agency as such. However, a heterosexual couple that decides to live their life this way is making a choice to do so. They CHOOSE not to get married. A homosexual couple HAS NO CHOICE. That's the difference.
