meg Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Vermont Legalizes Same-Sex Marriage! whoooo Vermont! I love this state so much sometimes...we were the first to have civil-unions and I remember going to a few small celebrations/ceremonies for couples we knew then..but this..this is just freaking awesome and about time. we're the 4th in the country to legalize it but the first to do so with a vote from the legislature instead of having it come form the courts. I'd put this in Gay/Lesbian/Bi/etc.Issues forum, but I think this is a great step for all of us, and I'll be very happy to attend the weddings of a few friends come September... it's just too bad it didn't come along sooner for a few people I know a woman who would have been in tears with happiness yesterday if she was still around, but I guess she's happy and knows and is jumping for joy where ever she is, right? yay green mountain state! m ps- heres the NYTimes link, the link at the top of this post is our local paper which had better detail, imo.

daisy Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 Hooray!!! I am so happy for Vermont!!! I hate that change comes slow, but I love that it's happening! I wish my state was not so damn conservative. I love my state's culture and tradition, but I just hate how closed-minded people are. I live in Texas, so it's not likely it will change here anytime soon... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
