Australian same-sex marriage, some support, some people oppose.
At present, same-sex marriage is not recognized by federal law in Australia. Just in New South Wales, Queensland and the Australian Capital, they acknowledge the fact that they have sex.
In fact, whether to legalize same-sex marriage in Australia is a long-debated issue in Australia.
In September 2017, Mr Tan decided to conduct a poll to get Australians to voice their views on the legalization of same-sex marriage in the form of a postal vote.
For a time, the "Yes" and the "No" `s two camps started a frantic pull... Australia`s streets are all about whether to support the legalisation of same-sex marriage.
Outdoor posters and banners on the street.
On the wall.
On the mailbox.
On the train.
Take to the street, parade.
Merchants are also painstakingly canvassing. 20% discount for Yes,!

Even the battlefield has gone to heaven.

In this war without smoke, there is another episode.
Australia`s goverment allocated A $ one hundred and twenty one million nine hundred and ninety nine thousand nine hundred and ninety nine to hold a postal vote, and people thought that goverment would plan various issues and carefully design the voting style, but they were stunned when they received the vote.
With a simple white paper, there`s a question on it...
Everyone is freaking out. Does this TM cost so much money?!
In short, Anyway, the vote was in full swing. Since September 12, as of November 7, 12.6 million Australians voted

Although the final result of the post poll was Yes, it only meant that the bill on legalization of gay marriage would be discussed in both chambers, and that did not mean that Australia had passed the bill.
This afternoon, Liberal Senator Dean Smith will submit the same-sex marriage bill to the Senate.
When both the Senate and the House of Representatives pass, the Federal Court will eventually decide to legislate.
Mr Tan said parliament would discuss a bill to legalize gay marriage before Christmas.
The next step, too, will be a vote by federal lawmakers!
Senate approval for the legalization of same-sex marriage is 70%, while the House of Representatives is 68%.
In other words, the probability of legalizing gay marriage in Australia is very high!
Australia to become the 26th country and region of the world to legalize marriage
Since the Netherlands became the first country in 2001 to allow cohabitation partners to register and recognize the validity of their marriages, there are now 25 countries and territories around the world that have legally recognized same-sex marriage systems, including the Netherlands, Belgium, Spain, Canada, South Africa, Norway, Sweden, Portugal, Iceland, Argentina, Denmark, Brazil, France, Uruguay, New Zealand, Luxembourg, United States, Ireland, Colombia, Finland, Malta, Germany, Britain (part of the region), Mexico (part of the region), Taiwan, China.
The same-sex marriage bill will be submitted to the House of Representatives and Senate after the Australian vote to legalize same-sex marriage. If both houses are passed, Australia will become the 26th country and region in the world to legalize same-sex marriage!
A 2016 random survey of about one hundred thousand people in 65 countries by the International LGBTI Federation found that around 32 percent of respondents worldwide believed that same-sex marriage should be adopted, 45 percent were against it and 23 percent said they did not know. More detailed polls and studies show higher levels of education and a greater preference for same-sex marriage among young people.
In fact, Australia is a country friendly to the homosexual love community. Prior to this, same-sexcouples could be registered as a cohabitation partner in Australia in order to provide legal protection for similar marriages. According to Bloomberg, the number of same-sexcouples in Australia is increasing year by year, with 46800 pairs of same-sexcouples in the 2016 census, up 39 percent from 2011.
Sydney, Australia`s largest city and the world`s famous gay gathering place, hosts the grand parade of homosexual love every year. This is one of the world`s largest and most vivid homosexual love events, attended by tens of thousands of people and watched by hundreds of thousands of people at a time.
In the big parade of Sydney`s homosexual love in March, hundreds of thousands of people took to the streets of Sydney, beauty, stunned, hustling and kissing, and even Google Maps turned into iridescent!
The whole city was shrouded in rainbow color, and there was no unusual sight, only unity and respect.
This symbolizes the respect and support of the LGBTQI community in Australia:
Lesbian (Lesbians), gay, (Gays), bisexual, (Bisexuals), transgender, (Transgender), cool, (Queer), bisexual, (Intersexuality).
The results of the national concern came out. Some cheered and some people burst into tears and saw everyone relax and smile. Today, I suddenly feel that love and freedom are Australia`s best gifts to us.
No matter what you think of homosexuality, people respect each other and be happy. Finally, we just want to say:
May you have the freedom of love.
