A case involving the custody of 3 lesbian couples' children was in front of the California Supreme Court, which has decreed that despite their differing circumstances each woman has custody rights and monetary obligations just as parents of the opposite sex do.
Now, that's huge. I bet there are tons of Jesus freaks right now downing antacids like there is no tomorrow!!
A panel of state Supreme Court justices ruled for the first time that those laws which hold estranged fathers to account should also apply to gay and lesbian couples who have children together.I think I can hear them scream... that's how schadenfreude must feel like.

"The court is now protecting the children of same sex parents in gay families in the same way children are protected with heterosexual couples in heterosexual families," said Jill Hersh, a lawyer for one of the women.
Sweet.
