Days of Lot: Taiwan on Brink of Legalizing Gay Marriage

Taiwan on Brink of Legalizing Gay Marriage

The U.S. Supreme Court ruling legalizing same-sex marriage emboldened gay activists around the world.

Christians are standing firm against the change, and the country’s first female president may make the difference.

About 80,000 LGBT activists and supporters recently took to the streets in Taipei for Asia’s largest ever gay pride parade.
Although no Asian country has legalized same-sex marriage, many gay activists believe Taiwan could become the first Asian country to do so. They were encouraged by a recent Facebook video posted by Taiwan’s new president, Tsai Ying- Wen.
In the video Wen said, “I support gay marriages and everyone has the right to love and to be married.”
Taiwan’s legislature is considering a bill to legalize gay marriage. Support from 57 of 113 lawmakers is needed if the measure is to move forward. So far, 56 legislators have backed the bill.
