In France, Civil Unions Gain Favor Over Marriage -... →
By SCOTT SAYARE and MAÏA DE LA BAUME Published: December 15, 2010 When France created its system of civil unions in 1999, it was heralded as a revolution in gay rights, a relationship almost like marriage, but not quite.

Ask the Smithsonian,” wrote The Los Angeles Times’s art critic, Christopher Knight, last week. One might add: Think anti-gay bullying is just...
