Delaware to Become 11th State with Gay Marriage

 

Pretty cool. I honestly thought that this wouldn't have happened until I was at least in my mid-30's.

 

I remember back around 2004, I was a camp counselor visiting the Delaware Legislative Hall with my middle school charges. We brought up gay marriage, and one of our tour guides said that with the gay marriage ban in our state it'd take a long time for that to happen here. Pretty incredible how fast things changed.

 

I am in no way thinking about marriage for myself, but I'm glad that it's an option on the table now, without even having to leave the sate. In practical terms, it'lll be really good for the gay tourism segment at Rehoboth Beach.

 

Anyway, I've met more than a few gay couples with families, so I'm excited for them.

Stellar

Isn't it exciting news? I feel the same way about my country, New Zealand. We had civil unions become law in 2004, which doesn't seem all that long ago in the bigger scheme of things, and just a few weeks ago, gay marriage sailed through parliament with a 77-44 vote! The most awesome thing about it was our more conservative governing party helped the bill become law, with the majority of them voting in favour. Very heartening how attitudes have matured on the issue. :)
