🔥 Dorah Muhanuuzi boldly says: “If men can marry many wives, women should marry many husbands too!” The internet is on fire with opinions! Do you agree with her take on polygamy vs polyandry? 💍 #GenderEquality #MarriageRights #Polygamy #Polyandry

VERMONT'S SUPREME COURT RULED THAT THE STATE'S MARRIAGE LAWS WERE UNCONSTITUTIONAL
Mastodon Post
Vermont then held a non-binding vote as to whether, in order to comply with the court ruling, we should adopt civil unions or same sex marriage. A person could vote for one or the other or both. I voted for both. Republicans in this state advocated ignoring the Supreme Court ruling. Civil unions won the day. The way I remember it, this was a first among the states and it started the ball rolling toward equal rights regarding marriage. Republicans were not finished with their opposition though. A major uprising of Republican voters targeted legislators who voted to enact civil unions. This lasted only one two-year election cycle but it was not pretty and it did some harm. LGBTQ community members, please keep in mind that this was a major struggle. Republicans were the clear villains as Gestapopublcians are clear villains today. To quote a Peter Paul and Mary song title, there is no easy walk to freedom. Thanks to Becca Balint for her post.

"An Idaho House committee will consider a formal statement asking the U.S. Supreme Court to end same-sex marriage nationwide and allow the state to restore its ban on such unions."
Idaho resolution pushes to restore ‘natural definition’ of marriage, ban same-sex unions
“This is yet another example of the extreme wing of the Republican Party ginning up divisive social issues in order to create problems where none exist.”
