Rumors have been swirling about Cynthia Nixon's possible plans to marry her girlfriend Christine Marinoni in Vermont, and she recently admitted to the UK Mirror that she'd marry if she could, though her reasons don't sound entirely romantic.
If it becomes legal I think we would… It’s something my girlfriend is interested in and it was not something my boyfriend ever was.
I think that to get married to her would be a little act of rebellion. It’s like if you’ve never had the vote and then you get it you’re going to run out there and vote.
I always avoided marriage in the past and was always very wary of it. I felt like it was potentially a trap. People sometimes want the party, the gifts and the public celebration of this big love - they’re excited about that rather than about the lifetime commitment. So I always steered clear of it.
We like rebellion just about as much as we like romance, so you can't really beat a combination of the two — especially when presents, parties and booze are involved.
