It was interesting cause the other night me and my friends had this discussion. My friend had just come back from touring UCSF for his PhD in Chemistry and had seen the fiasco that's going on now in San Fran.
I asked him and my other friends if they think gay marraige or something like it will ever be legalized in the US, and our conclusion came down to the state. But it was interesting cause we voted on this topic in Hawaii years ago (I think five ot six) and it got voted down. The topic has risen again and interestingly enough there were not enough people in the legislature to see if a bill could be introduced, so this topic will float around to next session which is next year (sneaky).
I hope one day in my life time I will be able to see my friends get married in this beautiful state. I hope they will pick a beautiful bridesmaid gown just for me...
