Civil Partnerships vs. Marriage
Civil partnerships were introduced in the UK for same-sex couples to legally unite in something like a marriage, but without some of the same legal rights. They were essentially introduced as an interim measure before equal marriage was approved.
Fundamentally there are no major differences between civil partnerships and marriage but there are some differences including:
Civil partners cannot call themselves “married” for legal purposes.
Civil partnership certificates include the names of both parents of the parties. Marriage certificates include the names of only the fathers of the parties.
Adultery cannot be used as a reason to dissolve the Civil Partnership. In a marriage, if one party is unfaithful this is grounds for divorce. This isn’t the case in civil partnership dissolution. Adultery isn’t recognised in same-sex partners.

So people are fighting to give themselves less rights...
