Faroe Islands legalize same-sex marriage

Until now, the Faroe Islands (a self-governing Danish province) has been the only Nordic territory to not recognize any form of same-sex unions.

Now, however, the Faroese parliament has legalized civil same-sex marriages. The law will come into effect on 1 July.

The Church of the Faroe Islands, which is orthodox Lutheran, continues to not recognize same-sex unions.

Discuss! :)

Great news for the islands even though population is pretty small. Not sure there's that many gay people or even transgender. :laugh:

The rugged and mountainous terrain does look very amazing though from what I've seen in photos.
