Is gay marriage legal in your country?
-
Yup, we have civil unions and marriage if the church agrees. Fostering and Adoption are also allowed.
-
Yes! It is legal in Portugal since 2010! And gay couples can now adpot as well!
The only thing that lacks now is the Surrogacy! I really hope we can get it too!
-
yes! sweden
-
of course it is ! happy with this answer are you?…
-
Yes
-
Not here in Chile, but Next door in Argentina yes. In fact, in Buenos Aires you can get your citizenship by marrying a person of the same sex, That's really progressive.

-
Yep - Luxembourg
-
here in Argentina gay marriage is legal :cheers:

Not even close!Â
They should decriminalize homosexuality first (Although I have to say the law has not been enforced in a long time)Â -
In Croatia we have a law on life partnerships where almost all the rights are equal to those of heterosexual couples -Â but it can't be called "marriage" because of conservative referendum which took place in 2013 that enrolled in the Constitution that marriage is union between a man and a woman. There is no possibility of adopting a child. And things in everyday life are far from being ideal.
-
Not at all in Indonesia. Homosexuality is tolerable to a very lesser extent, but for marriage privilege… no. That's not gonna happen anytime soon. We are also not allowed to adopt children ::)

nope and frankly for me personally there are far more important issues to tackle in my book
i get angry when the government of this nation talks about having Same-sex marriage plebiscite
that's 600 Million dollars AUS that can be spent in other areas far more important.Australia is unlike the US , we already have firm laws that protect all its citizens , even before US legalised same sex marriage we had and still do have a lot of laws protecting defacto relationships that includes gays.
so the horror stories you hear about one partner dying , making the other homeless,doesnt happen over here.if people want to have a civil marriage , then just make it law get it over and done with , just don't waste money on this nonsensical issue that only benefits a privileged few.
marriage , be it same sex or otherwise has never had a trickle down effect for anyones rights. as an institution its based on unequal rights anyway,by its very nature its "we have rights afforded above yours".
to say it can have an effect on other areas is like using the failed statement and excuse that giving the upper elite more tax cuts means that wealth trickles down , that is bullshit , same as the bullshit that same sex marriage will be the panacea for all issues that non heterosexuals face. -
Yes (finally) but with fierce opposition
-
Not yet, only civil unions
-
Yes - Belgium here. But it might be difficult to marry a foreigner, especially a non-EU one.
-
If I understand the legalities corerctly it's actually illegal not to perform "gay" marriage here. (Though we just call it "marriage" regardless of genders now). A priest would have the right to refuse on personal grounds but the church itself cannot deny it, they'd have to call in another priest.
At least that goes for the state churches. Personally I wouldn't set foot in one, there are plenty of other religions or civil marriages that are the exact same in the judicial sense and you're still married. Just not in a building symbolic of thousands of years of oppression..
Well, my view anyways. No offense intended.
