"On the Faeröer Islands the so called "gay marriage" has been legalized last friday: the last Northern European country where couples of the same sex could not marry. The archipel in he Northern Atlantic Ocean is an autonom island country within the Kingdom of Denmark. Differet then in Denmark same sex couples can only marry in the town hall BUT not in the church.

In the year 2014 a referendum was helt for the 50.000 inhabitants, that showed 2/3 (!)of the people said gays and lesbians must have equal rights to get married. In that year the bill was not passed yet. The country has, since the year 2006 laws to stop discrimination at work. Last year the first openly gay was elected in the parlement.

orginal article source gay.blog: Op de Faeroër Eilanden is vrijdag het ‘homohuwelijk’ gelegaliseerd: het laatste Noord-Europese land waar het huwelijk nog niet was opengesteld voor koppels van hetzelfde geslacht. De archipel in de noordelijke Atlantische Oceaan is een autonoom eilandenrijk binnen het Deense koninkrijk. Anders dan in het moederland kunnen homo’s en lesbiennes hier alleen burgerlijk trouwen en niet in de kerk.

In 2014 werd onder de circa 50.000 inwoners een poll gehouden, waaruit bleek dat tweederde van de bevolking vindt dat homo’s en lesbiennes het recht moeten hebben om te kunnen trouwen. In datzelfde jaar haalde het homohuwelijk het nog niet op de eilanden. Het eilandenrijk heeft al wel sinds 2006 wetten om discriminatie op de werkvloer tegen te gaan. Vorig jaar werd voor het eerst een openlijke homoseksueel in het parlement gekozen.

This is very good news for Gays in your country. I am impressed that 2/3's of the citizenry called for Gay Marriage Equality.

Thanks for sharing this great news with us. I would never have heard of this except for your post! :)
