Supreme Single Lady

President Barak Obama nomiated Elena Kagan to the Supreme Court. One of the issues is that she is 50 years old and has never been married. She is a single career woman. Does that matter to the job at hand? It shouldn't. David Souter is never married, and it didn't matter then. But then again our world has changed. There are more unmarried adults than married adults, due to divorces, deaths, living-together arrangements. Sex has been decoupled from marriage. We singles need advocates at high levels so that more "single friendly" policies can be made that can make the dream of all persons being equal more of a reality whatever your marital status is.
