"Thailand's Parliament Legalizes Same-Sex Marriage in Landmark Decision"
Thailand's parliament overwhelmingly approved a marriage equality bill, recognizing marriage between two people regardless of gender, with only 10 lawmakers voting against it. The bill, which still requires approval from the Senate and endorsement from the king, could see Thailand join Taiwan and Nepal in legalizing same-sex unions. While the legislation marks a significant step towards equality, some unresolved issues remain, as LGBT advocates had unsuccessfully pushed for gender-neutral terms in references to the family unit.
