Two mothers’ & Two fathers’ pride flags

For having two moms or two dads and a folk parenting together with another same-gendered or same-sexed person, while not necessarily in a stable relationship with that person nor essentially with an existing child (i.e. two folks still planning coparenthood).

You can call these experiences as bimaternal & bipaternal.

Twenty-five years ago today, Denmark enacted the world’s first same-sex partnership legislatio

Twenty-five years ago today, Denmark enacted the world’s first same-sex partnership legislation. The law granted legal parity to same-sex couples in “registered partnership" as to opposite sex marriage. In June 2012, Denmark repealed "registered partnership" and replaced it with a gender neutral marriage law.

n 2004, Massachusetts became the first US state to recognize same-sex marriage. Today, 19 states allow same-sex marriage.

In 2013, United States v. Windsor struck down the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA).

There’s a long way to go before the US legislates for true marriage equality, and even longer before the rest of the world catches on. But, on the twenty-fifth anniversary of this day, we can affirm that we’ve made progress towards tolerance and acceptance, that we’re headed in the right direction.
