You’re invited to a very special occasion.....one day!

So I don’t know whether you know this or not, but I can’t get married ... not legally anyway. And let’s be clear, it isn’t like I have anyone I would want to tie the knot with at the moment in my life - but if I waited till it was convenient for me to stand up and say something I’d never get anything done (and honestly, when do I wait to say something)!



In Australia, same-sex partners can’t legally marry, but laws can change. Late last year the Federal Parliament passed a motion calling on MPs to consult with their constituents about whether Australia should allow same-sex couples to marry. You may have been asked your opinion in a council newsletter or someone may have come door to door... or like me and many other people I know, you may have not known about this at all (my brother was the one who initially let me know).
 To be able to legally marry the person I love is a luxury that I’m not afforded. While I respect that there may always be those that don’t agree with my lifestyle; which is their right, I don’t respect that by law I am not granted equal rights to anyone else because I happen to love a dude.

And that’s where I’m asking for your help. What can you do?

Now is the time that your voice can really count, in less than a month your MP will be asked to report back to Parliament about the views of their constituents about same sex marriage. And your opinion, whether it is for or against, should be heard (though if it is against I would love to know why... seriously...call me).


You could even make an appointment with your MP and tell them what you think, no voice is too small, but we all lead busy lives and at the end of the day standing up and being counted is all that matters.


Thanks for taking the time to read this, if I ever get married you’re invited!
