It's not a newspaper note yet, but it's an initiative that is being discussed this week in the México City assembly, this is a PRD's proposition (Democratic revolution party) by ..... which pretends to change the definition of marriage from "the junction or arrangement between a man and woman" for "junction between two persons to share responsibilities, and civil rights" obviously this initiative is not being supported by the conservative political forces (Nacional Action Party) PAN)in the assembly are trying to make it impossible, I have to say this one is the religious party and where the mexican president came from.
"Our party may think about give some more rights to homosexual people and do things to benefit them, but there's no way this initiative get our approval since it wants to chance the definition of marriage, it may bring a lot of unexpected problems and legal unfilled spaces"
It's not that I believe in marriage , but I DO belive in rights and I think it's very important to get as many right as we can. I prefer to say "I don't want to" and not "I can't".
Definitively it's necessary to get acces to medical services thru your couple or partner if it's got this right, it's good to know that we can share a property, something of our own like buying a house together and it may belong to both of us and a lot of more stuff that heterosexual people has the righ to do.
Another discussion is about adoption. one thing is approving this law to marriage and another very different would be to adopt children, I`d prefer to get one step at a time and not nothing asking for both things at the same time.
There's a lot of possibilities this initiative gets approved, since PRD is mayority in the assembly and everyone has told they will give this vote, but everything can happen. So... let's wait for a while and if this proposition gets appoved I'll invite you everyone to my wedding day in Mexico!
