In what states or countries can gay couples get married?

Massachusetts definitely. And yes, it will be interesting to see what the rulings are when people married in MA move elsewhere.\n\nBelgium, the Netherlands, Spain (!!!), and Canada. South Africa is under court order to extend marriage rights by the end of this year (not sure where that stands just now).\n\nNew Jersey has a court ruling too, requiring the legislature to guarantee same-sex couples the same rights as hets. The legislature has six months to decide whether that will be marriage or something else.\n\nThe UK does NOT have same-sex marriage, only civil partnerships and religious ceremonies are prohibited at the registration. That distinction matters because it makes the discrimination more tolerable.\n\nSomewhat dated, so it doesn't include the NJ case, but a great concise overview of the history.\nhttp://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/4081999.stm

You can become an ordained minister to performing legal US marriages on this website: http://www.ulc.org/ulc/ \nHowever you will want to check with your state and county to see if they are legal they aren't in all states.

Morbid question.\n\nYou can find another country where it is legal to do this and go there to get married, otherwise you are out of luck.\n\nSee, go to France people do whatever they want, uh, well, "Jacques Chirac" wants there ...\nhttp://www.cnn.com/2004/WORLD/europe/02/10/france.marriage.ap/

They can in certain countries. If you want to marry a same gender person, you could try changing your sex, but personally - same sex marriages are just not natural and strictly forbidden in many religions.

Hello there.  My name is Harry Johnson and I love handsome men like you.  \n\nIn some US states, we can get married ie. Massachusetts.\n\nWe may have to marry fast because they are pushing to outlaw homosexual marriages.

Since the federal government looks at marriage as a contract and federal law states that all states must recognize the contracts that were signed in other states then if gay marriage is recognized in one state it must also be recognizes in all states.\n\nIt must be removed from the federal tax code to be decided by the states whether it can be banned.

I don't think the government accepts gay marriage in any form yet, you will have to wait until gay people are given the right to be miserable and need a prenup!

Have you tried Canada? The US will not honor the marriage but if you want to. May it be happy and joyful for the both of you.

You've got to be kidding.  The U.S. is the most gay-friendly country in the world.

Yes it is legal for a gay man to marry a lesbian.  It is same sex marriage that is not legal.

Massachusetts is the only state to offer marriage. Its going great here too, Several thousand marriages have taken place and...Its been a boon to the economy. Massachusetts has always been a leader in civil rights and is the smartest state acording to a federally conducted test. New Mexico is the last on the test.

It depends on several things, one of the biggest is where are they getting married (i.e. U.S/Canada/another country).
