Faroe Islands legalize same-sex marriage

[Msig]

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.

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

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