Equality of assets is independent of sex

Editor, The Australian: In response to your report on page 7 of 14 Dec 2016 entitled ‘Love-lost lesbian cries foul on assets’, I believe the Family Court judges over concentrated on the fact that this couple kept their bank accounts separate from each other.  In a similar situation with a heterosexual marriage of 27 years, there would be no question that the remaining partner would get the majority of the assets. At the present time, there is a strong campaign for marriage equality for gay couples.  This decision highlights the necessity for marriage equality.
