The Partners

Two birds wing their way through the city, wing-tips almost touching. The Partners inhabit the heterosexual-yet-gay-inclusive space between living together and the Defense of Marriage Act. Say what you want about postmodern relationships, the flexibility of gender and the obsolescence of traditional marriage -- It's just too easy to lose each other when you're both moving so fast. On the other hand, there are consolations: metrosexual lovers can swap moisturizers and hair products.

Meaning: Love, romance, connection, intimacy, a promising relationship.

Reversed: Loneliness, isolation, casual dating, frantic bed-hopping.
