So happy to hear this! Meanwhile, the US is being dragged toward marriage equality, kicking and screaming. Only a handful of the 50 states have legalized gay marriage, and those marriages sadly aren't recognized by a lot of the other states. And some states have passed legislation to ban gay marriage outright (a pox on them). It makes me so happy every time I hear another country has legalized same-sex marriage. It makes me feel there is some hope for humanity.
The funny thing is that we currently have a right-wing government - and a lot of people [who are against gay marriage] are accusing them of just pandering to populist sentiment...
You'd think that in the 21st century, this would be a non-issue, at least for the supposedly progressive industrialized western nations. I swear there are some here in the US who would like to see us back in the 16th century somewhere, living under the Christian version of Sharia law.
