Taiwan's First Buddhist Same-Sex Marriage

Taiwan's First Buddhist Same-Sex Marriage

Via CNN August 13, 2012

TAOYUAN--Long-term lesbian couple Huang Mei-yu and You Ya-ting were married in Taiwan's first same-sex Buddhist wedding ceremony on August 11, 2012 in Taoyuan, northern Taiwan. Some 300 Buddhists chanted Sutras to bless the couple who are both 30 years old. The couple wore traditional white wedding gowns and exchanged prayer beads instead of rings in a Buddhist monastery. The couple's parents initially agreed to attend the ceremony, but because of the international media exposure they were absent. The couples' marriage is not legally recognized, but Taiwan is one of the most liberal cultures in Asia and many gay and lesbian rights groups are petitioning the government to legalize same-sex marriage. Below is the ITN news video on this historic event:

A Modern Day Japanese Wedding

Here is a funny picture of a modern day Japanese wedding with the groom carrying a keg of beer on his back:



Actually, in most Japanese weddings it is traditional for the bride and groom to NOT drink nor eat anything during their wedding party. Only the guests are permitted to actually celebrate. So this is really a very clever way to provide them with excessive amounts of beer in a fast, efficient way!
