Bermuda Bans Same-Sex Marriage Less Than 1 Year After Legalizing It

[DigitalDrifter]

So now they're calling for a boycott of Bermuda.

LGBTQ activists are calling for people to #BoycottBermuda after a law reversing same-sex marriage was passed.

Less than a year after same-sex marriages were legalized in Bermuda, the governor of the British island territory signed a bill into law on Wednesday that replaced it with domestic partnerships.

According to the local news site Bernews, Gov. John Rankin said the new law grants same-sex couples the same rights as heterosexual couples. However, the law permits same-sex couples to enter into domestic partnerships only ― not legal marriages.

The Bermuda government will continue to recognize same-sex couples who wed before the law was reversed as married couples.

Hopefully they do boycott the place.
Fewer tourists to deal with when I'm there. Viva boycott !

Of course it might increase the number of heterosexual tourists.

Most people don't care one way or another about gays... but I can tell you, here in NOLA, most people won't go near the French Quarter during Southern Decadence. It is depravity at its worst. They are trying to clean it up though as they literally fornicate in the street.

In Bermuda, as well as most of the world, getting married involves different genders of humans. A man can't marry his hog or another man. Or both.

They will come to their senses and change back in a few years once it starts to impact tourism
