Mark and I went to get our marriage license last week and it was clearly written in a way that "Party 1" and "Party 2" could be whatever sex you want. When the lady (mid to late 50-ish) reviewed it after we had filled it out and saw we were combining names she rolled her eyes and said "Oh you guys..." and I thought "Oh no, here it comes" but then she finished with "...are so cool! That is the neatest thing! I've never seen that, but I think that is really great." And my belief that Massachusetts is the only place I want to participate in the legal part of marriage was affirmed. :)
