Its quite sobering for me to realise that this happened in my lifetime and not in victorian times. We tend to look at South Africa as an example of Apartheid but parts of the US needed to be dragged into civilisation.
It took Alabama till 2000 to remove the laws from its statutes.
And now its such a normal event people scratch their heads and wonder what all the fuss was about.
Did the world fall apart ?
No.
I wonder if,in 50 years time, our kids will look back at the gay marriage struggle and wonder what we were thinking. Will our generation be judged as backward bigots because of the actions of the few ?
I hope that we arent all judged harshly.
