Which one of the following arguments about the legal consequences of marriage is not one that David Chambers makes: Marriage rules are hardly static and change over time with regard to their benefits and responsibilities. Permitting gay and lesbian couples to adopt children is likely to hinder rather than advance movements for single-parent adoption because it will corrode the myth of two parents needed for child rearing. The legal position for unmarried same sex and opposite sex "step parents" who live with a custodial parent are generally without legal significance. The benefits of marriage are likely to be unevenly distributed among same-sex couples according to social class and income.
