News Headlines, Mexico

Legal battles in California are raging around the issue of same-sex marriage. Many States in North America have entered the fight. Many are confused about whether the marriages in California will be considered legal in other states.

I don't think so, not yet anyway.

Comment #2 DianaR from USA - Sat Jun 14 18:58:19 2008

I thought that Mexico was a seriously Catholic country, With that in mind, I don't see how gay marriage would be tolerated, much less legal.

Comment #3 EugenS from Europe - Mon Jun 16 05:06:16 2008

Mexico is Catholic, so there's no way that will be acceptable there anytime soon

Comment #4 rckrckr from Los Angeles - Wed Jun 18 01:06:44 2008

Marriage no, but civil unions were legalized only in Mexico City in November 2006.

Comment #5 EugenS from Europe - Wed Jun 18 07:51:53 2008

Do you mean that gay couples can get civil marriages? Or just some sort of business union or what?

Comment #6 eyes4 from The Beach - Sun Jun 29 02:01:37 2008

I think the changes accepted by the Republic of Ireland (even the Catholic parts) in the past 15 years cause this issue to be looked at again. Abortion, divorce, and a few other societal changes make it seem possible for Mexico to accept same sex marriages too.


Comment #7 DianaR from USA - Mon Jun 30 12:13:04 2008

Same sex marriages are now legal in California, so the next big hurdles will be what happens when the couple return to their home state.

Unlike the gay marriage law in Massachusetts, Gays don't have to be residents to take advantage of the law.

Don't think there legal, and in my experience Mexico is a little more tolerant of the gay lifestyle than many other Latin American countries (at least in the large cities it is).
