One more reason to just legalize same-sex marriage already

A Florida court threw out a divorce and custody decision because the couple, married since 1989, has been declared "never married" since the husband was once a female. It was just a matter of time before the hazy status of transgendered people threw a wrench into the whole anti-gay marriage works.

The best part of this is that in the court's desperate attempt to stamp out anything that even resembles a same-sex marriage, they inadvertently legalized one form of same-sex marriage:

Ironically, Kantaras' attorney pointed out that "Michael can't marry a woman in Florida but he can marry a man." This gives the theoretical green light for transgender people who are also gay or lesbian to marry their partners.

I can't wait until someone who is generally regarded by one sex but born another tries to marry someone who is the same sex. How are the homophobes going to handle that one?
