HEY, MAYBE THIS IS AN ARGUMENT FOR GAY MARRIAGE: “Married couples, whose numbers have been declining for decades as a proportion of American households, have finally slipped into a minority, according to an analysis of new census figures by The New York Times.”
No, I’m actually serious here. The article suggests that as the proportion of married couples declines, support for marriage from employers, etc., may decline as well. More marriages = more support.
UPDATE: Not everyone is persuaded. I’m even charged with “bizarre logic.” It’s not clear what’s bizarre about it, though.
