      For women we were the first country in the world to give women the vote.

      Sorry but New Zealand beat us to it in 1893, we were close behind in 1894 though.

      And as for Same Sex Marriage in Australia, we'll find out on Wednesday I guess. I'll be glad when this shit show of a plebiscite is over.

        Canada has the weird position that we had the first legally recognized same-sex marriages that predate our government recognizing same-sex marriage.  Our fight was led by the MCCT (Metropolitan Community Church of Toronto) under Reverend Brent Hawkes performing marriages under a loop-hole in the law then fighting for years to have the weddings recognized.

        I live in Toronto and know some of the people involved in the fight - including Rev. Brent Hawkes.  I belong to one of the first synagogues in Canada to perform same-sex weddings.

                Unfortunately gay marriage or civil unions are not legal in Romania.  :hapgay:

                  As of recently, yes. Australia finally jumped aboard the Equality Bandwagon.

                      Congratulations to Australia.

                      Although I didn't like the feeling that more than a third of the country wanted me to be a second class citizen, I'll try to remain positive and remember that Love Won in the end. Next stop, LGBT adoption rights…

                        Taiwan has allowed gay marriage as of 2018. Becoming the first asian country to do so.

                          Romania  still refuse  to    aknowledge  this  right to gay  people. There  are  a  couple  of  legal  actions  taking  place,  but right  now  we  don t  exist in  our  law' s perspective.

                            Yes, in Spain is has been legal since 2005. Spain was one of the first countries in Europe to legalize gay marriage and the third in the world by that time.

                            Very proud of my country in that respect:

                              Nope, just civil unions in Greece as far as I recall.

                                I have nothing against gay marriage, if you feel like it, then go, but I don't think it will be allowed in our country. Maybe not in my lifetime.

                                  Why not? May things not change in your country to allow gay marriage?

                                    We are a deeply religious country inspite of the social media age. It will be pass in our congress but I doubt it will get a yes vote.

                                    Maybe many, many, many years from now but not in the near future.

                                      That's a pity  :cry2:
                                      Spain used to be a very strong religious country, but that has changed in the last decades. Enough to have from 2005 legal gay marriage in my country.

                                        I guess we don't dwell on gay marriage issue that much, as I've mentioned in my previous reply, maybe someday but probably not in my lifetime.

                                          Poland - still no . This country is too religious to accept gay marriages

                                            Luckily it's legal in the UK and not likely to change any time soon
