Check out the recent comments of Christina Fernández de Kirchner, the Argentine president - a very intelligent, very well-read lady:
She's in China at the moment on a diplomatic visit, but has said she will not veto the bill if passed by Argentina's Congress.
So that makes ten countries on four continents now that recognize equal marriage:
- Netherlands (2001)
- Belgium (2003)
- Spain (2005)
- Canada (2005)
- South Africa (2006)
- Norway (2009)
- Sweden (2009)
- Portugal (2010)
- Iceland (2010)
- Argentina (2010)
I liked what a commenter over on Box Turtle Bulletin had to say:
the arc is bending, baby. slowly, but surely, the arc is bending.
In celebration, here's an Argentine hunk to get your weekend started right. Remember, it's ten . . . .

Keep bending that arc!
An interesting assortment of countries allowing same-gender marriage. Too bad the US is lagging behind in enlightened laws.
