Re: Postdoc B permit

A case was put before one of the Swiss courts I think a while ago, where it concerned a women and a man; perhaps one could argue something on the basis of unfair discrimination if you could get a permit on the basis of a partnership that is recognized for a same sex couple, but not for a hetero couple, if that is an issue in a particular kanton.

But I am hoping you will not have to go that far
That you will not be able to argue as the reason for the same sex union is that there is no marriage available to them. The only reason for marriage not being available to a hetrosexual couple is that one of the couple is married or insane so...
