Abstract:
This symposium piece continues a debate between Thomas Stoddard and Paula Ettelbrick regarding the advisabiilty of pressing for same-sex marriage rights. While acknowledging that time, energy, and money might be spent in a number of ways that would benefit the LGBT community, the Essay nonetheless argues that because securing marriage equality in more states would be valuable both in itself and instrumentally, the struggle should continue unabated.

Keywords: marriage, parenting, benefits, equality, civil unions, LGBT, same-sex
