Jana Dickson left the relationship with lesbian partner Gena-Louise Edvalson because she believed it was not a good environment to raise her two-year-old son, among other reasons. Salt Lake City Alliance Defense Fund attorney Frank Mylar represented Dickson.

"This other party was living with my client and it was in a lesbian relationship -- and my client and the other party separated and cut off their relationship," he recalls.

Dickson has since married a man and converted to Christianity. "She's a professing Christian and she certainly attends church. She and her husband both do," Mylar adds.

A year ago, Edvalson filed suit for parental rights to the child, relying upon an unenforceable agreement the two women had made during their relationship. The court has dismissed the lawsuit, ruling that a two-year-old child's right to his mother outweighs the demands of a woman unrelated to him, adding that any contracts that are contrary to public policy are illegal and void.</storybody>

For time immemorial, gay people have jumped through all kinds of societal hoops in order to protect their anonymity, or their financial situation or their children, or some combination of the above.

Hope this decision makes her happy. It's got to be rough to be a lesbian with children living in Utah.

Isn't it funny how if someone who is heterosexual their whole
life comes out as being gay, they were really gay all along - but
if a gay person decides to go straight, well then they're still gay.

ROFL.

Not really funny. Just a sad indictment of irrational fear and prejudice in our society.

For time immemorial, gay people have jumped through all kinds of societal hoops in order to protect their anonymity, or their financial situation or their children, or some combination of the above.

And likely the most common tactic employed is to live as a heterosexual until such time as the perceived danger(s) are no longer present.
