“A growing number of governments around the world are considering whether to grant legal recognition to same-sex marriages. So far, 30 countries and territories have enacted national laws allowing gays and lesbians to marry, mostly in Europe and the Americas. In Mexico, some jurisdictions allow same-sex couples to wed, while others do not.”

I think it is very important to understand there are still a lot of countries who have not legalized same-sex marriage. Only 30 out of 195 countries that have legalized same-sex marriage. That is an outrageously low number considering the amount of people who have to struggle with who they love on a daily basis, with a threat to their lives.

I chose this picture because I think it speaks volumes about same-sex marriage. Love is love and people should not be ashamed to love someone. Taiwan recently passed a bill that legalized same-sex marriage. They are the first country in Asia to do this.
