Same-sex marriages will soon become legal in Thailand - DW News
Thailand is set to become the biggest country in Asia to legalize gay marriage on Thursday. The new legislation replaces references to "man" and "woman" with "partner", allowing anyone to get married, as long as one is a Thai citizen. However the law will not apply to the children of same-sex partners, meaning many of them will remain at a disadvantage.
