[edit] Texas
Added Texas-November 2005 entry. Source: Houston Chronicle: 'http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/elect2005/3446405.html' Sad but true.

[edit] Chronological?
Can someone change the order of dates to be chronological rather than reverse chronological?

[edit] Pre-Modern History
I tweaked two of the lines, to state "in modern history". John Boswell's book Same-sex Unions in Pre-Modern Europe discusses marriage contracts et al. throughout Christian history. samwaltz 20:46, 29 November 2006 (UTC)
- Love to see some info on pre-modern same sex marriage. There's a lot more history there. --76.192.185.140 (talk) 01:36, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Significant steps towards legal recognition?
Can things like "Uganda and Latvia amend their constitutions to ban same-sex marriage." really be said to be significant steps towards legal recognition of same-sex couples? I think a different title would be more appropriate for this list of events. René van Buuren 08:27, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Added Louisiana's Information
I added Louisiana's information to the chronology. Will also include references.--Clay 23:19, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Political Support?
35 years ago, in 1972, the State Convention of the Minnesota DFL Party added a plank to their platform supporting equal marriage rights for all adults. As far as I can tell, that is the first time a major political party in the US has taken such a stand, and made it part of their party platform.
Question: is that considered 'progress toward same-sex marriage', and something worthy of being added to this page? T-bonham 09:32, 1 August 2007 (UTC)
