gay divorce ...

the ft had an interesting short article last week about the divorce rates amongst gay couples since the introduction of marriage/partnership ...

finland has a 30% divorce rate, which is damm high considering that it's only a few years since gay weddings started ... whilst it's too early to get a sensible UK rate ...

it does seem to me that gay couples sometimes plunge into the partnership thing a bit too quickly ... i wonder whether it's availability it putting pressure on couples to commit to each other before they are really ready ...
