It's great but shouldn't you have done that sooner?
Then Australia is like a twenty one year old who has not learnt to ride a bike yet. Wink

I wish we'd done it sooner, but we aren't so very far behind.  The first country to grant equal homosexual marriage was the Neatherlands in 2001. http://www.freedomtomarry.org/landscape/...ernational Britain and France only granted that right in 2013. Much of Eastern Europe isn't quite there yet.  ibid

The reason I'm so very proud of the U.S. right now is that we did it despite our high percentage of Evangelical and Catholic Christians, not to mention all of our Mormons.

I'm actually surprised it took until 2001 for anyone to legalise it. Some European countries have been very liberal to gays for quite a few decades now. France first legalised homosexuality way back in the the French Revolution era, although I'm not sure if they recriminalised it later.

I'm expecting Mexico and Australia to follow the trend in the near future. If Mexico allows it regionally then it's only a matter of time.

It seems like it's gaining pace, when one country legalises gay marriage, it seems like other countries are encouraged by it.

"Ironically like the nativist far-Right, which despises multiculturalism, but benefits from its ideas of difference to scapegoat the other and to promote its own white identity politics; these postmodernists, leftists, feminists and liberals also use multiculturalism, to side with the oppressor, by demanding respect and tolerance for oppression characterised as 'difference', no matter how intolerable." - Maryam Namazie
