Consider yourselves lucky you are living in Thailand which still seems to have an unsophisticated approach to these matters.

The approach is only "unsophisticated" until your domestic partner drags you into court to take half of everything you own.  Can and does happen, here as elsewhere.

For same-sex couples as well?

Not sure, but if you phrase it like this, it makes great Haiku:

Just got back from a
spending spree bought some dandy
shoes, socks, boy remarks

It's a beautiful phrase!

I agree, Elephantspike.  I think I've already posted this - although a cursory search didn't turn up anything - so I'll mention it (perhaps) again:

Did you know that any haiku can be sung to the tune of "Moonlight in Vermont"?  Members old enough to remember or have been exposed to older standard songs from the 40's or 50's have undoubtedly heard it.    Try it!

Five beats to the line
Seven beats then five again
Everything's haiku
