Being married Quote by Fergie
“I've had such a great run with The Dutchess...and now this. You know, it is so interesting how in this business, the second you start dating they want to know if you're engaged. The second you're engaged they want to know when you're going to be married. The second you're married, they want to know when you're having children.”

Why can't a female be married to a female and male be married to a male and it be called a marriage?
