Hello everyone.
Things are brighter here but still a lot of work to be done.
Check out the video.You will see a few happy gay couples.
below more information online

June 26, 2015, the Supreme Court ruled that marriage equality would be the law of the land in America. Three days later, Tom Andersen, an award-winning, out singer-songwriter released a music video that wed his recording of ''Morning Glow'' (from ''Pippin'') to dozens of images of happy gay couples. The golden-toned tenor said he sought to capture the feel-good euphoria of the LGBT community and its straight allies. Since its posting on YouTube, Andersen says he's heard from fans of the video from all around the world.
I thought this beautiful, inspiring song (from the musical "Pippin") written by the incredible Stephen Schwartz would be a great musical backdrop to my homag...

It is such a shame that people have to try to make their existence known to others. I just people would accept people for who THEY are not what people want them to be. Individuality is more important than putting people in boxes and categorising them into one group or another. Just be nice to one another, respect and accept people as a person with feelings. .

Going off topic, this is my view about labelling children with ADHD or Autism or Dyslexia. As soon as we do that we set them up to fail because we stop seeing the whole child and just see their learning hindrance. :)

I have never been a proponent of gay marriage. But here's the deal. It's just a piece of paper. I am married to a woman and I still say that. It's just a piece of paper. Marriage is also just a word. It's just a legality. In the end even if I am not for gay marriage, I still believe in people being free and happy to choose whatever they want. If you need a piece of paper to feel it is legit...you probably should not be "married." I hope NONE of that is offensive.

@amadeo Sorry Alfredo but he is not being honest--he is being disrespectful to you and Mike--you are not 'less than' he and his wife. Why shouldn't you and Mike have ALL the benefits from marriage that he and his wife have? Is he willing to give the legal rights up? Sadly because of him you NEED that piece of paper to be legitimate.
It's so nice of him to be so condescending "It's just a piece of paper"--ARGH!!!

It is a beautiful song. Gay marriages are legal in Denmark and I am happy about that. I think that heterosexual couples and gay couples should have exactly the same rights.

Thats great, I don't see why it was ever an issue to begin with. You should be allowed to marry who you want always and have the same equality.
