Taiwan is the first Asian country to legalize gay marriage

Taiwan is the first Asian country to legalize gay marriage
I thought maybe it would have been Japan or China, but I guess not.

Quote:BEIJING — Taiwan’s Constitutional Court on Wednesday ruled in favor of allowing same-sex marriage, paving the way for the island to become the first place in Asia to legalize same-sex unions and cementing its status as a beacon for LGBT rights.

Excellent.

I'm still amazed it's illegal in Oz.

Many Australian couples come to NZ to get married.

Stinky tofu and now this ?

Watch Andrew Zimern's episode on Taiwan, the segment on Madam Wu's stinky tofu is memorable. One of the very, very few bits of international cuisine he couldn't choke down.

As for the gay marriage thing, I'd think the stinky tofu would not be a popular reception item.
