Yes I do.
Not only do I think each and every couple should have equal rights - most people are under the false impression that if a couple lives together for so long, they automatically become a "common law" married couple.
This just isn't the case - it's a myth, there is no such thing as common law marriage.
Which means, if there was a couple and one of them died - the other would not legally be entitled to a thing. So if they shared a house together that was just in one name, they'd lose their home if family stepped in.
Or if one broke off the relationship - and had the home in their name, the other would be left with nothing.
It gives all couples a chance to be legally committed, and it also gives legal security!
