| 16. | Sexual partner | ||
|
That man or woman or person who shares all your most intimate sexual moments with you on a daily or long-term basis, he or she being of either sex, or, occasionally the same sex, or, sometimes, being a mix of sexes, or occasionally someone of no sex at all (but that does not often happen). In normal sexual relationships, mostly being someone of either one sex or another who, with his or her partner of choice, enjoy carnal knowledge of each other on a long-term basis, as according to the sexual preference of either partner. Come, my dear, be my sexual partner, either for a day or two or maybe even the rest of our lives, or maybe even come skipping up the aisle with me and, with a bit of luck, and in the meantime, we’ll also have some fun between the sheets whenever we want to, weather permitting.

| 17. | Reconstituted family | ||
|
A reconstituted family (also known as a blended family) is the sociological term for the joining of two adults via marriage, cohabitation or civil partnership, who have had previous relationships and children from them. A man breaks up with his wife and got divorce and either re-married another woman or moves in with her. He also brings his children from his previous marriage. Therefore, it becomes a reconstituted family. The children will be known as step children.

'Gaybors' are neighbors who also happen to be in a homosexual relationship.
Very friendly same sex couples who live next to or near you "Hey did you see the gaybors put their Christmas lights up yesterday?!"
"Yeah! John and Michael really did an amazing job this year!!" "Were you kept up all night by the cocktail party going on at no. 12 as well?!?!" "Yes! Our gaybors do love their karaoke!" "Did you see the two women who moved in across the hall??" "You mean our new gaybors? Yeah I spoke to them earlier!" "We've got gaybors now?!" "Yep! They were telling me about their civil partnership!" |

| 20. | gay marriage | ||
|
Something that should be legal even if many people morally disagree with it. You can disagree with same-sex marriage and still respect that same-sex couples have the right to decide whether or not to marry for themselves. Also if you ban it then your sex determines who you can and cant marry (a woman can't marry a woman but a man can and vice versa), just like your race determined who you could marry before interracial marriage was legal. Also religion really shouldn't come into play here because of separation of church and state, and no churches cannot be forced to marry gay couples if gay marriage becomes legal (right now they can't be forced to marry interracial couples even though interracial marriage is illegal.) Sean and Bob were a happy couple until Bob came down with pneumonia. Sean couldn't visit Bob in the hospital because they didn't have a gay marriage.
