Description: The author examines equality in the family context, particularly in spousal relationships, in the wake of the legalization of same-sex marriage and a history of rapid changes for the law as it applies to common law couples. She argues that equality in family law is at a crossroads, and that recent legal changes to the institution of marriage provide an opportunity to rethink equality in spousal relationships and begin to move away from a system which encourages and perpetuates dependancy and, therefore, inequality.
