Fridae

well, I don't understand the conflicting legalities in South America, BUT I wish these two guys a long life, full of love, happines, peace.

That "Roman catholic leaders expressed alarm"...well, that means these guys are doing something loving, right and good.

So sweet! Glad their efforts paid off in the end. =D

Congratulations to Argentina! Portugal is likely to become the 6th European Country to allow same sex marriage. A proposed bill has been aproved by Parliament and now awaiting approval by the country's President.

Again, I think this marriage is going to be void. And, this marriage doesn't give them the right to adopt children and to inherit each other's estate because the federal government and court can continue to derecognise this marriage. I hope that the Bill in the Argentine Parliament to legalize gay marriage will be voted on soon. Now it's stalled. This couple should visit every lawmaker in the Parliament personally and seek their understanding and compassion. This is more practical. If there are enough support in the Parliament, then gays in the country can finally marry anywhere in this country with FULL legal recognition.

Good way to get your wedding photos seen by the world :)

Following Spain's legalisation of gay marriage in 2005, a lot of excitements have been going on in the Latin world. Recently, Uruguay's Senate just approved same-sex adoption! Now, gay partners there can adopt their own kids legally. Singapore is really progressing too slowly.

oh,wow,it's just very romantic and i am happy for them

Well, Singapore has to consider about the feeling of the neighbours, one is Malaysia and the other is Indonesia.

The pin size country must consider very carefully. Sigh

good idea
i love it >_"

so lovely~~~Congratulations!!!!!!

Congratulations to the handsome happy couple! And kudos to the enlightened governor of Tierra del Fuego!
A crack of light has just opened further in the wall of discrimination and religious intolerance in Latin America:)

Happy New Year to everyone. I guess many of you are counting down to a New Year while I am revising my New Year Resolution at home. 2009 is a year with many hopes for the LGBT community. Though I do not think that this marriage will have legal effect, I think it's a huge step forward. Beside the fight for gay marriage, this couple inspires us in a few other ways.

Before I go further, et me highlight that they are both HIV-positive. Their successful union and coming out should inspire HIV-positive gays around the world in 3 important ways.

First, HIV-positive persons need not hide in the closet. Look at this couple. Not only had they come out, they had come out to the world.

Second, HIV infection is not a sentence of lifetime loneliness. Many HIV-positive persons like this couple have networked among themselves and found a loving, understanding mate. It's often easier for a HIV-positive person to understand the emotional needs of other HIV-positive persons, so HIV-positive individuals had often found a good partner among HIV-positive persons. It's also easier for one to find a truly loving partner when he doesn't wear a mask to cover up his HIV-positive status. A HIV-positive person needs not cover up his status when his partner is also HIV-positive. In this respect, I hope that the Fridae's newly launched website for HIV-positive persons will succeed in helping the HIV-positive members among us to network with one another and perhaps to find a monogamous partner (if they choose to).

Lastly, and most importantly, this couple should inspire us to pursue our convictions. If we don't fight for what we want, they don't happen. This couple had encountered countless obstacles. They fell down, they stood up again and continued with their fight. If they had given up, they wouldn't have come so far.

Congratulations to the handsome loving couple! I wish them all the best, be strong to go through obstacles in life.

Congratulations!

Congratulation ! Bravo to the Governor !!

Muchas felicitaciones a los recien casados. Esperemos que mas gay argentinos y lesbianas argentinas tengan mas apoyo y vayan a casarse en la Tierra del Fuego y que mas gente de cualquier partido politico en Argentina hagan o copien lo que ha hecho Fabiana Rios.
