I just checked it out, and we do have proper gay marriage in England. It somehow went under my gaydar!
I thought we still had that stupid civil partnership crap. But no, in March 2014 (or maybe 2013, not too clear) we got proper gay marriage! So it's a double celebration for me 
I found this on wiki about it:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marriage_(...)_Act_2013
What the fuck, canon law?

Quote:Makes same-sex marriage legal.
Preserves the Canon law of the Church of England which states that marriage is between opposite-sex couples only.
States that the common law duty on members of the clergy to solemnise marriages does not extend to same-sex marriages.
What the fuck, canon law?
