relationships

We are more alike than we are different. Results of two separate university studies show that same-sex relationships are similar to those of opposite-sex couples in many ways.

ScientificBlogging.com explains:

"The stereotype that couples in same-sex relationships are not as committed as their heterosexual counterparts and are therefore not as psychologically healthy is disputed by two studies featured in the January issue of Developmental Psychology."

Psychological studies of lesbian and gay couples reveal two key factors that promote healthier relationships: (1) flexibility about gender roles, and (2) equal division of parenting and household tasks.
