Guest zipperzone Posted May 7, 2011 Posted May 7, 2011 Once again proving that every country in the world except Iran and North Korea are more progressive on social issues than the US. Doesn't that make you just a little bit ashamed? Can anyone post a complete list of countries and or states where (A) gay marriage is allowed, and ( Civil unions are allowed. It would be interesting to see a comprehensive list all in one place. Quote
