in france gay marriage is not allowed but a mayor from a town next where i live at celebrated few months ago an union between 2 guys but there is an appeal to cancel it since it's forbidden
instead we have a civil union called the PACS and which allow people of the same sexe to be united
i think it's a good alternative to marriage and futhermore it gives about the same advantages than being married notably for the property

There's no mention at all of it here in the law..and nobody really cares.

I bet some gays care...
So I take it it's not allowed.
If nobody has a problem with that, I'll round up the essential in the first post.

I dunno what the law is. They can't get married but maybe a "civil partnership" I don't think they should get the same tax breaks as families because they get them to provide the next generation. Also I could just say I'm a homo and my mate who I'm living with is a homo so we get tax breaks. Not cool.

In Denmark gays can be joined in a civil union (JICU), which - once achieved - is equivalent to a marriage. The difference is that there's some restrictions on who can get JICU, which are not there for standard heterosexual marriage: First, you cannot be JICU at a danish embassy abroad, and second, to be JICU in Denmark at least one of the parties needs to have been living there for more than two years. I guess that these rules are in place to prevent "marriage-tourism".
Wrt. the church, the individual ministers decide for themselves whether they will bless a civil union between gays.

Gay marriage was banned here late last year.

I read that as "could I just say..."

how about it?

Texas: Forbidden

Well, I dunno, if some gays got married here, I bet that the next day a bunch of skinheads would go beat them up and demolish their house...But yeah, although it's not explicitely banned, it is not mentioned as an option when getting married either.

Hehe, you know, if that civil union tax break thing actually took place, I'm certain that a whole number of single straight people would suddenly become gay
