CONGRATULATIONS TAIWAN!!

Taiwan just legalized gay marriage!!! I've been keeping a bit on an eye on them since their Constitutional Court ruled that it was unconstitutional to deny same-sex marriage and today they passed the law!!! AHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!

Congratulations Taiwan for being the first in Asia to legalize same-sex marriage! Take that "what about our Asian values dur hur" politicians, we're here, we're quuer, GET USED TO IT!

I KNOW RIGHT?! I grew up hearing about how LGBTQ+ is a western import and against Chinese culture, so to see a Chinese (Han?) majority country do this feels a lot like vindication to me.

I also admit to getting very very emotional while watching news coverage of the first weddings that took place on Friday. There might have been tears involved.
