The Home of Free Love

To this day, same-orientation relationships are relatively considered taboo. Well, love knows no bounds, and The Netherlands is one of the nations that are forward-thinking about this matter. In fact, this European country has legalized same-orientation couples to marry and adopt children, marking the first to have done so!

The first ones who got married in The Netherlands were Gert Kasteel and Dolf Pasker. Well, if two hearts love each other, who are we to stop them from tying the knot? Of course, not all countries followed suit. Those that also allow this rule include Northern Ireland, Ecuador, Taiwan, Austria, Australia, and Malta.
