With more twists and flips than Matthew Mitcham or Greg Louganis or the Cirque du Soleil for that matter, Argentina’s on-again off-again relationship with gay marriage is no closer to final resolution.
After 2009 legal victories three marriages have now been annulled, including the first lesbian marriage, by mid-level courts, and one has been un-annulled. Some legislators are trying in vain to fix the problem for good via an equality law, while the Supreme Court is refusing to step in to uphold equality. A further fifty couples are getting nowhere with their request for a marriage license.
It must be hard not knowing if you are married from one day to the next. My hugs go out to the unlucky couples
