I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry

Watched this hilarious movie with Baby today.




Two straight, single Brooklyn firefighters (Sandler, James) pretend to be a gay couple in order to receive domestic partner benefits.

Once again, the issue of gay couple becomes the storyline for this American comedy. What's different is that the movie isn't anti-gayism. Well, not -that- against gayism. It reflects the possible situation in the US - cheating of domestic partner benefits.

Domestic partner benefits such as health and dental care, accident and life insurance and death benefits provided based on the family model of a working husband, a stay-at-home wife and children. However, having been left out, lesbian and gay activists in the early 1980s sought recognition of their relationships and new definitions of family. And so domestic partnerships were born - unmarried couples of either same or opposite sex who live together.

This raises a few questions: Who qualifies as a domestic partner? Must the couple be together a minimum number of years? Must the couple live together? Must they share expenses? Must they be financially responsible for each other?

Any o how, this isn't an educational entry about domestic partnership or benefits. So ya, I now pronounce Chuck and Larry is funny. Adam Sandler never fail to entertain me. So go watch it.

A ring is like a circle, it goes on forever. It's not like a triangle, triangle have corners. It's like a circle. I now pronounce you husband and husband. You may kiss the husband.
