[QUOTE="GayOfThrones, post: 865086, member: 29171"] Speaking from personal experience, even though it's a bit of a paper nightmare, UPS will insure your same sex partner, regardless of whether or not you live in a state that recognizes same sex "marriage" or "Civil Unions" or "Domestic Partnerships".
