Yay New York!

Someday, equal rights to marriage for all will hopefully be the law of the land everywhere. For now, at least, gay and lesbian couples can get married in New York. (That’s 6 states that have gotten there before California. People think that’s strange, but California is actually a very conservative state, with the exceptions of the Bay Area and the greater Los Angeles area.)

Good going, New York! Just in time for Pride Week, too. Rocking good news.

    I was so happy about this vote. I know that my backward, conservative, provincial state will NEVER do this, so I had to rejoice vicariously with NY.

    Hopefully, with more and more states ruling for marriage equality, the federal government will eventually have to do the same — or so we can hope.
