Equality Rocks!

It's been a good week for equality so far.

That's an understatement, it's been a great week for equality. 

Now I know that a truly inclusive society is a naive hope, but it is a dream all the same, and one that many of us look towards with hopeful wonder.  But let's have a look at this week so far:

  • Love him or hate him, Barack Obama is re-elected President of the United States!
  • Like or loath him, Mitt Romney is NOT President of the United States!
  • 3 States in America (Washington, Maine & Maryland) passed a referendum in support of equal marriage
  • Tammy Baldwin became the first openly gay U.S Senator in history!
  • Francoise Hollande's Socialist Party led French Government have approved a bill legalising same-sex marriage AND gay adoption
  • Spain's Constitutional Court have rejected an appeal by the People's Party to confirm marriage as only between a man and a woman
And it's only Wednesday!

Makes you wonder...what's going to happen next week?
