Couples wed in a riot of colour as Thailand legalises same-sex marriage | BBC News


More than a thousand LGBTQ couples across Thailand will marry today as same-sex unions become legal in the country.

The law kicked into effect on Thursday after a sustained campaign that one activist described as a "long fight full of tears”.

LGBTQ couples now have the same rights as other couples to manage assets, inherit, adopt and take decisions about their partner’s medical treatment.

But activists say they are fighting for more changes because many laws are still not gender-neutral.
