Mexico City allows gay marriage!
| December 21, 2009 | Posted by Suzanne under Gay Marriage, Gay Rights, General Interest, Love, Politics, Realtionships |
Mexico City’s assembly voted to extend gay couples full marriage rights on December 21, 2009 in a landmark law that is the first of its kind in Latin America, a traditionally macho and Catholic region. The bill takes a 2006 law allowing civil unions by allowing gay couples to access family social security benefits and apply for joint credits as if they were a straight couple.
This is truly wonderful news at a time when gay people are facing implementation of laws in Africa that enshrine hate and would have them face life in prison, or even the death penalty.
