what to say

Further to this post about marriage traditions now that we have the CUA...

If you were in a civil union and someone asked you if you were married, how would you reply?

What about if someone asked you how long you've been married or in the relationship? 'Yes, we've been happily (civilly?) united for two years now'

I wonder how this will change with time - I think in the first little while people who have a civil union rather than a marriage may be reasonably forthright about it in some cases, but in ten years time people will just say they are married.
