Ellen and Portia, Cynthia and Christine... a good week for lesbian couples

Who among us doesn't feel themselves make a slightly patronising "aw" noise when looking at these pictures of the Sex and the City star with her girlfriend Christine Marinoni? It's just the loveliest thing I ever saw and even better for being slightly unexpected (the Daily Mail are still picking their jaws up off the floor, which is always fun). Ellen and Portia I find less winsome, somehow. Not sure what it is; they're a bit too photogenic I think. But it's still a real pleasure to bring you the news that they're probably going to get married.
