And now Argentina...

[Erkhyan]

This just in. Apparently, despite heavy opposition by the Catholic Church, the Senate voted to extend the right to marry to same-sex couples. A similar bill having been passed earlier this year by the lower house, this means marriage equality is just one signature away from becoming law in Argentina (and since the president herself was a proponent of the bill, said signature is already a given).

Portugal, Iceland, and now Argentina. Busiest six months ever for marriage equality, eh?

France and the United States, supposed motherlands of democracy and human rights: I'm laying my disapproving, disappointed eyes on you.

Funny how it can be legal in a largely Roman Catholic country, but it's still illegal in much of the US due to religious or political reasons.

They already have a female president AND gay marriage. Look on the bright side, though: We still might get these before Iran does, at least.

The US is a largely Protestant country; they don't like the Catholics anyway. The US isn't as bad off as some places, but it's far from the motherland of equal, human rights.

At least this much is spreading. Ideally, the more it does, the more people will see how needless their fear really is.

Late, but, hell, go, Latin America!
