It comes despite the fact that Chile has quite conservative leadership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-verse\" style=\"font-size: 18px; text-align: justify;\">Chile&#8217;s fight for same-sex marriage began in September 2010, when a male couple who were raising two children walked into a government office in Santiago and asked to be married. They knew their request would be denied even though neighboring Argentina had legalized same-sex marriage that July. A long legal battle ensued with the support of gay rights organization Movilh.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-verse\" style=\"font-size: 18px; text-align: justify;\">In 2017, a politician that had previously opposed same-sex marriage introduced a bill to legalize it, The New York Times reports. In 2019, the president of Chile, Sebasti\u00e1n Pi\u00f1era, also previously opposed to same-sex unions, put his support behind the bill, paving the way for Tuesday&#8217;s vote.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-verse\" style=\"font-size: 18px; text-align: justify;\">Chile has approved a landmark law allowing same-sex marriage in a historically Catholic country. The legislation approved by parliament on Tuesday also enables gay couples to adopt children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-verse\" style=\"font-size: 18px; text-align: justify;\">Chile&#8217;s LGBT community has long asked for the law, which Congress has stalled since 2017.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-verse\" style=\"font-size: 18px; text-align: justify;\">The vote was a major victory for gay rights activists and pushed the legalization of same-sex unions closer to becoming the norm in Latin America.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/polscienceweb.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Chile-in-South-America-1024x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-6515\" width=\"330\" height=\"330\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<\/details>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:17px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/teakvetenadze\/2021\/12\/07\/chile-legalizes-same-sex-marriage\/?sh=3ada17e52b25\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Forbes<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chile became the 31st nation to legalize gay marriage Read more Chile became the 31st&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":6502,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","portfolio-category":[427,429,426],"class_list":["post-6510","portfolio","type-portfolio","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","portfolio-category-427","portfolio-category-december-2021","portfolio-category-newsfeed"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.4 -
