In the most important civil rights case of this Supreme Court term, the issue of whether the constitution requires every state to recognize same-sex marriages was argued this week. The four liberal justices, including all three women on the Court, appear ready to hold that the equal protection clause of the constitution’s Fourteenth Amendment bans

Ellen Pao took the stand this week in her high profile $16 million sex discrimination case against Silicon Valley venture capital firm Kleiner Perkins. Facing a packed courtroom, she answered intimate questions about her sexual relationship with a married partner (she says she broke it off when she discovered he was still married) and her
