Facebook Adds ‘In A Civil Union’ And ‘In A Domestic Partnership’ Option To Relationship Statuses

They may not be legal where many of you live, but on Facebook at least you can now list yourself as “in a civil union” or “in a domestic partnership.”

“This has been a highly requested feature from users,” says a Facebook rep. “We want to provide options for people to genuinely and authentically reflect their relationships on Facebook.”

There’s still no “in a throuple” option, though for some of you “It’s Complicated” will remain the most fitting option.
