Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

MODERATORS
 

96% of MPs voted for it! gayroller-2000

It will very likely be approved by the Senate and then needs to be approved by the king (lmao).

Although the amendment makes marriage gender-neutral, the two parents will still be legally referred to as "mother" and "father" regardless of gender.

Can't wait for the pregnant dads

Asia truly is years ahead of us. In Thailand now cisgender women can be pregnant dads, and in Nepal they're even letting straight couples get gay married!

If China passes something on the level of this or Cuba's just watch westoids lose their shit about the straight genocide

just watch westoids lose their shit about the straight genocide

what they'll likely do is say that China is doing it to trick us

what are the other two asian countries where same-sex unions are legal?

[–] iridaniotter@hexbear.net 3 points 1 year ago

You can get married in Taiwan and Nepal, although in Nepal the supreme court hasn't ruled on it yet so there's technically the possibility that it could get reversed.
