Denmark has legalized same sex marriage!

Postby Divair » Thu Jun 07, 2012 6:55 am

http://cphpost.dk/news/national/updated ... -legalised

We're now up to 11 countries world wide with same sex marriages in effect. Thoughts?


Personally, I'm excited. This is a brilliant step forward, and it will put more pressure on the other EU countries to legalize it. It seems like nearly every country in the EU is pushing some kind of bill through their local parliaments atm, but bills can take years to be voted on. A toast to success!

I agree with their decision. The only way I wouldn't, would be if they try and pressure other countries into making the same decision.

I'd be very much okay with them telling other countries to stfu and let gays have proper access to marriage.

Why? Some slight diplomatic pressure for equal rights is great.

If SYRIZA gets in power (and damn it, I hope they do), it'll probably be legal within months.

A lot of other countries are working on it, too. Colombia already approved an action in which it'll be automatically legalized in 2013.

As the others have asked, what's wrong with it? Seriously, who is harmed by allowing gays to marry? You get to marry the person you love, why can't I?
