Gays left out of Sweden's gay marriage debate
In Sweden, the government has agreed to investigate the possibility of allowing same-sex couples to marry, only they're not including us in the discussion. A cross-party task force producing a report on gay marriage and the types of weddings that should be available to same-sex couples is under fire. "The decision to appoint reference groups without representatives from homosexual, bisexual and transexual (HBT) groups is preposterous," said Sören Andersson, chairman of RFSL. "What objective reason can there be for giving the religious community influence over the legal consequences of the investigator's work, but not HBT groups?" We can only imagine.
