AND THE LOVE WINS ... SAME SEX MARRIAGE IS NOW LEGAL IN CALIFORNIA!
Today is a fantastic day in California, we are now officially the second state in the nation to legalize gay marriage. C'est Magnifique :-)
Above, in San Francisco, 87 year old Del Martin and 84 year old Phyllis Lyon got married after being together for more than 50 years !!!!! In 1955, they founded the nation's first lesbian organization, the Daughters of Bilitis. In the 1960s, they tried to get California lawmakers to introduce anti-discrimination bills and successfully persuaded some police officers to stop harassing gays and lesbians at bars. YOU GO GIRLS!!!!
At the same time in Los Angeles, Robin Tyler and Diane Olson that we have met at the commitment ceremony last month at the Abbey in West Hollywood tied the knot after being together for 15 years. They are the original plaintiffs in the case that originated the supreme court decision. Mazol Tov :-)
Bless them!

Not to play tit for that but MA was the first state in the United States to allow gay marriages, CA was second. Although I hope all states became equal (as in United...) the best of luck in Bazil and all countries. It takes a lot of advocacy and educcation to get this legislation passed so get your hiking boots on! Mi mejor en su esfuerzo para obtener este derecho humano necesarios pasado. Entonces estoy bajando de un marido!
