Japanese Lesbian politician Gets Married
 
Japan's first openly lesbian politician celebrated her same-sex partnership on Sunday, a month before elections for Japan's upper house.

Kanako Otsuji, 32, is a candidate for the Democratic Party of Japan in next month’s election for the House of Councillors.

She got married to her lesbian partner of four years, Maki Kimura, 32. At this time, the couple's union is not legally recognised as Japan does not have same-sex marriage or civil partnerships.

That's cool,no homophobia!

between who the people in the community?

Suki 07-05-2007 09:20 PM

Congrats for them.

(In Spain homosexual marriage is legal, so I'm not surprised to hear that since here it's nothing unusual).

It's just love... that is all. What do you really need explained?

Yes, it's called the breakdown of any morals and values that hold a society together. Once you endorse any "lifestyle" you'll eventually endorse criminalism and worse.

I find "sunny days from Syria" to be a oxymoron, considering the tyrant who runs the country.

BlacKitty89 08-29-2007 08:32 PM

In germany it's acutally very normal...
Thousands of them marry every year and I'm
really for it!
Love is such a special thing and everybody
should marry the person he or she loves....

But it's really special that a japanese politician
got married...in such a conservative country!
She's so lucky!

To dannavy85:

This is not trend of our time!!!
Even in old rome there were
men who had their boys...(the boys were
from 8 to 20 years old I believe...much younger
than the men that wanted them as sextoys...)
It was really normal to do it
with men and women..(for the men...
women were not allowed to have sex
with other women....)

Even my best friend is gay....I like him more
than every other friend...

I like homosexuals and transvestites...

really, I don't undersatnd what you mean, Sorry :confused:

BTW, you noted

anyone here, have Private culture in his country.
that very normal in some countries, when women get married from another woman , but in most countries especial in Asia countries that not allow, and in Arabic countries that is forbidden first in our religion and second in our society.

about me, I love girls and when I want to get married I'll take female.and I'll care in her too much....:cool: because I man :cool:, and I can give she what she wants.:rheart:
