Argentina: Two Years of Gay Marriage |
|
|
|
 A law giving gay and lesbian couples the right to marry in Argentina celebrates its second anniversary this week.
Argentina became the first Latin American country to legalize gay marriage after President Christina Fernandez de Kirchner signed the law on July 21, 2010. Lawmakers approved the law on July 15 over the strong objections of the Roman Catholic Church; one cardinal called the movement to legalize such unions the devil's handiwork.
A couple together 27 years was the first to marry under the law. Architect Juan Carlos Navarro married his partner Miguel Angel Calefato in Santiago del Estero on July 30.
