Takei and Husband to Gays: Be Counted

Star Trek star George Takei and his husband, Brad Altman, have geeked out for a public service announcement to encourage same-sex couples to participate in the 2010 Census.

"This is the first-time in history the census is counting marriages like ours," says Altman, wearing a tinfoil hat.

"It doesn't matter whether you have a legal marriage license or not," says Takei, dressed in his Starfleet costume. "It only matters if you consider yourself married. That’s what the census is asking for, for people to identity how they view themselves."
