gettin' hitched, south africa style
Nicely done, South Africa! Their highest court just ruled that same-sex marriages have the same rights as opposite-sex marriages. It might get overruled by the legislature, but that's not considered likely.

Um. I didn't mean the queen thing the way it sounded. Um, I meant it kind of like Charles-is-a-dweeb-but-his-mum's-awfully-nifty kind of way.
Though, if we had a queen, maybe we'd make some progress? If W. could do a Ru Paul there might be hope for the world.

Woo! I wondered who else would post this before I did. Geez, you know it's bad when South Africa--South Africa, people! Land of diamonds, thinly-veiled-still-apartheid, AIDS-is-not-caused-by-unprotected-sex--South Africa is considering same-sex marriage/civil marriage/legal cootchie coo. I swear, it must be having a queen that does it. Or something.
kharold is happyxasperated!
