LGBT News Greenland's parliament unanimously approves same-sex marriage and adoption

Great news! I wonder how long that has been in the planning or whether its been a recent move.

Although I never realised the population was that small! Its quite fascinating, the capital has a population of only 15,000 (not even a small town here!) and yet looks to be really well equipped with some interesting modern architecture, the likes of what you'd only see in large towns and cities here. (I hope that doesn't sound patronising, its just intrigued me that's all!)

Perhaps the Faroe Islands will follow shortly, I hear polls suggest there is public support now, and there are even pride events now.

 

Considering this is their parliament it's not hard to see how it passed unanimously :roflmao:



I get annoyed thinking I'll never get a BF living in a small city of 70,000, I feel sorry for any gay person living in a country of 50,000!!

 

Soon it is going to be news if there is a country left where gay people can't get married!

 

Well, as of now there are more countries where homosexuality is illegal than countries where gay marriage is legal. Still have a ways to go.

 

Arfff

Yes, especially predominantly moslem country like Middle Eastern and mine for example

 

And there's seven countries were it can get you executed.

 

Still in a short, the victories are coming at a rapid rate in 1st world counties.

 

The way things are going, I don't think those countries would ever adopt gay marriage, at least not in our life times. There's still countries where mixed marriages are illegal. (Mixed meaning mixed religions)

 

Way to go Greenland =) That's awesome news!
