Yeah, no one is looking at the utter unfairness to those who are excluded from marriages of convenience. I mean, like, I'm not getting any younger and pretty soon there won't be any men my age to marry for convenience. All well and good to say that I could marry a man for convenience, but I effectively can't if they've all died off. Now, that's unfair!

And besides that, all those heterosexual marriages of convenience that are such a pillar of our great institution of marriage, white picket fence and all, are getting all the bennies. Well, they deserve them just because they can pass. Of course that's OK because the discrimination is passive.

I don't have to add the <g>, do I?
