It’s 2015, and while the rest of the developed world is evolving to provide full equality for all of it’s citizens Australia is falling behind. We still don’t have marriage equality. Same-sex couples deserve and are entitled to the same rights as everyone else. Failure to allow same-sex marriage says that it's okay to discriminate on the grounds of sexual orientation and gender. A society that doesn't grant equal rights to all of its citizens needs to stop and think. These are our kids, our parents, our friends, and our neighbours, fighting for equal recognition in the eyes of the law.
