Campaigning in New Hampshire yesterday, U.S. Senator and Democratic presidential candidate Chris Dodd stated that if his 2- or 5-year-old daughters turn out lesbian, he would want them to have marriage-like rights, such as with civil unions, but not marriage:
"If you're allowing... [civil unions], all the protections you have there, you've covered it."
Separate-but-equal on racial grounds was ruled unconstituional by the U.S. Supreme Court over half a century ago, but Senator Dodd is comfortable with imposing it on lesbian and gay people.
