As far as I know the now 1 (count it: ONE) state Massachusettes in the United Staes allows same sex marriage. California did, but some greedy sons a b****es decided they needed to play match maker and banned it AGAIN.

But where else in the world is it legal? Or at least civil unions?

What has it got to do with greedy people? and can you like prove it got something to do with greed, where is your foundation to the accusation?

They wern't quite satisfied that the other 48 banned gay marriage and they needed one more. Maybe selfish is the better word?

Anyway dude, chill, I was mainly joking about the "greedy" part.

Yeah we do, except I think they're really civil unions or civil partnerships.

I find it highly disappointing that the US is so behind on this kind of thing, although I think that in general, the US is more conservative and the religious than the UK.

It's so weird though. I believe it was the same day Obama won the election, California re-banned gay marriage. What a huge step forward, and a huge step back!

You can have a civil ceremony in Australia if you are gay/lesbian. I work with a part-time marriage celebrant who does them all the time.

I spoke to this coworker of mine today.
They are 'naming ceremonies' and have no legal significance.
Sorry to have misled anyone.
