DALLAS, Texas (The Adobo Chronicles) – Same-sex marriage is now legal in 37 states. So what can a gay couple do to get a marriage license in a state like Texas? Singer Miley Cryrus has the answer.
Cyrus has managed to raise lots of eyebrows when she went public about her sexuality. She does not have any gender identity. Short of calling herself genderqueer, Cyrus said “I kind of wanted to be nothing. I don’t relate to what people would say defines a girl or a boy.”
In other words, ‘decline to state.’
In California and other states, any voter who does not identify with either the Republican or Democratic Party can mark the box, “decline to state’ in the voter registration form.
“You can do the same when filling out the marriage license application,” Cyrus said. Where it asks for the name of the groom or the bride, Cyrus’ advice is to just cross it out, write your name and add ‘decline to state’ beside it.
“By doing so, the state cannot discriminate against you since technically, your marriage is gender neutral and will not be in violation of any ban against same-sex marriage,” she added.
So if you are a gay couple wanting to get married in one of the 13 non-equality states, you don’t have to wait for the any ruling on same-sex marriage cases now pending with the U.S. Supreme Court.
You can get married now!
