California's Supreme Court upheld Proposition 8 banning same-sex marriages the other day, and while it's a bump in the road for equality, The Naughty Bride consoles herself that it took decades to get women a vote, much less equal treatment under the law, which remains elusive.  (Much like success in marriage, by the way.)

The Geelong Observer carried the news to Portia Di Rossi's hometown, along with this photo of her kissing her bride, Ellen DeGeneres.  This pair is among the 18,000 same-sex marriages that will remain on California's books, which Melissa Etheridge lauds in the accompanying article, even though she's not Australian.  

And, as far as heating up your marriage goes, it's worth remembering that every time a Naughty Bride kisses or hugs a girlfriend, this is what her Dear Groom is thinking about.  Word to the wise.
