Is gay marriage legal in your country?
-
Sadly not in the Philippines, especially on whats happening here I doubt if that would be taken seriously.
-
Nope. In fact, it's heavily illegal :-[
-
In Ukraine - nope, only same-sex relations are legal.
Guys from America and Europe, I envy you all. -
nope, and seems like it's gonna stay that way. LGBT is a recent hot topic in indonesia and many people are against it (as it is a predominantly islamic country) and the government is sure as hell on their side. they go as far as banning two males holding hands emoji or any emojis that look slightest bit gay.

South Africa - Yes it's legal
-
It is in the UK :hug2:
-
To be pedantic in Great Britain, it's not legal in Northern Ireland…yet
-

-
Kenya, - Carnal knowledge against the order of nature is punishable by up to 14years in Prison. SO , no…Scruff and other gay dating apps actually have a travel warning up for my country. :cry2:
-
Nope, it's not in india
-
In France, it is legal. But we still have a large part of population, mostly in countryside, who are against all form of Homosexuality.
-
Yes.
-
yes
-
No, in Germany gay marriage is not legal. But gays (and lesbians) can register a civil partnership here.
-
Yes, it is - Argentina, since 2010.

I know it's pretty sad that I can't say for sure–100% across the board, whether or not it is, seeing as I've lived here forever.
It's just I hear so many little blurbs about this state or that, which I really don't pay much attention to, and currently there isn't any need for my concern.
Guessing…I'd say, for the most part, I think it is recognized in some form or another, depending on the particular state, but I wouldn't be willing to "stake my life" on it. ???

Yes. In Brazil, same-sex marriage was legalized in 2013 by a Supreme Court ruling. However, it is not recognized in the constitution. Gay couples are provided the same rights as those of the "traditional" marriages, including adoption and surrogacy, but some local judges have refused to issue certificates alleging freedom of religion, which forces the pair to appeal.
Nevertheless, the country is a potentially dangerous place for the LGBT community due to its pretty conservative society, inefficient criminal justice system and homophobic police. If the same-sex legalization depended on a plebiscite, it would have hardly happened.

Malaysia - Absolutely NOT, as it is a predominantly Muslim country. In fact, like Kenya, "carnal intercourse against the order of nature" is punishable by up to 20 years in jail, and whipping. However, this provision is mainly only used for arbitrary political persecution.
Funny story… In 2010, the Film Censorship Board of Malaysia announced it would only allow depiction of homosexual characters as long as the characters "repent" or die. :cheesy2: :cheesy2:

still not in Australia go figure
-
Oh… quite shocked about the Australia thing since I've come to know of it as quite a liberal country (minus the Pauline Hanson thing)... I remember watching on TV that both parties were in support of gay marriage prior to the Federal elections... but I did some research after your comment and realized that that plebiscite is still not under way...
All the best in the near future..
