how about health insurance? if you aren't married you cannot get put on each others insurance.
How about filing taxes as married?
How about certain cases where rights are assumed between married people (one dies without a will)
there are plenty of cases where they are denied things. And the word fits their commitment just fine. Maybe we should just call hetero marriges "breeding contracts", that way you can have something that truely is only between a man and a woman......
