Word of the Gay: "Life Partners"

"Life Partners" are people who have committed to one another in a relationship that is usually romantic but can also signify a close friendship.

No one seems to take them for a joke when they say things like "he's my husband or she's my wife". Others around them simply know that it's for real and mostly for a lifetime. With homosexuals, heteros tend not to take us and our long-term relationships seriously, which is one reason why we can't seem to get same-sex marriages passed as a human right in America.
