While the outcome of this extravagant wedding ceremony may seem almost comical, there has been widespread lesbian outrage over the the entire process.
In an open letter to the eldest Kardashian, hollywood power-couple Jill Goldstein and Nikki Weiss-Goldstein display their frustrations, stating how they suspect that while Kim was using her wedding to further her career, gays are being denied "over 1,000 federal protections as a result of not being allowed to legally marry."
The couple asks, "Are you able to understand how devastating it is to love someone dearly, want to spend your life with them through a legally recognized and respected union, only to be denied that civil right because people in position of political power don’t think it’s “right”?...We had to take countless measures to ensure that our honorable bond was guarded, in areas of healthcare, parenting, benefits, and taxes—just to name a few. We wonder if you appreciated just how many rights your marriage with Kris was afforded when you collected all those profits."
The Kardashian divorce will go down in history as a big wakeup call to the unjust prohibition of gay marriage.
