The LA Times carries this third installment in its point, counterpoint series between ADF attorney Glen Lavy and Jon W. Davidson of Lambda Legal. Glen writes:
. . . After all, if “sexual orientation” is now a protected class, what about bisexuals? A bisexual who feels a need to have two spouses — one same-sex and one opposite-sex — to fully satisfy him or her could argue that it is sexual-orientation discrimination under the court’s decision for the state to forbid such persons from choosing the partners of their choice. How can a person say that his or her desire for a same-sex partner is more valid than a bisexual’s or polygamist’s desire for two or more partners? When marriage is divorced from its historical connection to opposite-sex couples and procreation, there isn’t much basis for retaining its other traditional norms . . .
