Thai Senate passes equal marriage bill

Only some royal faffing about left and Thailand will have equal marriage <3 <3 <3

And this legislation is passing by landslide numbers - 399 for, 5 against, 10 abstentions in the lower house, and now 130 for, 4 against, 18 abstentions in the upper house.

Thailand will be the first SEA country and the third in Asia (after Taiwan and Nepal) to equalise marriage.

was replying to a friend elsewhere and realised why i've been crying so much today with this news

i'd forgotten what hope feels like

I know the feeling. it's good to get reminded every once in while. sometimes all it takes is a little spark and time, and before you know it you'll get properly reacquainted. stranger things happen every darn day *:･ﾟ✧

careful there, you're over-egging the pudding :)

 Popcxqueen:

And love wins! ???

 Tsuliwaensis:

just speaking from my own experience - not everything that seems impossible in the moment or even for a long ass while always actually turns out that way. 

also, I was asking my language exchange buddy in Thailand roughly a year ago how likely she thought it was for them to get marriage equality through and she wasn't seeing it for anytime soon. ┐(シ)┌  

Agreed!!

Congratulations to Thailand on passing the marriage equality bill! This is a monumental step towards equality and inclusivity. ???
