Will It Do More Than the Gym?

CNN is reporting:

Same-sex partnerships may be good for couples

Doctors already know that marriage benefits the health of both sexes in a variety of ways. British scientists said civil partnerships for gay and lesbian couples were likely to offer similar advantages.

"Marriage confers health benefits on men and women and similar benefits could arise from same-sex civil unions," said Professor Michael King, of London's Royal Free and University College Medical School, in a study published in the Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health.

But then again most anti-gay groups that are against same sex couples marrying are also hoping that we will get ill and die out anyway. They don't want same sex couples getting health benefits from their partners which is one of the material perks of marriage.
